Thanks *a lot* for this. I've been wanting to add an entry in the FAQ for this for quite a while but didn't find (or take) the time yet. > > Please comment or fix if I did anything architecturally wrong or bad > -- my background is mostly in C++, so I may not be grasping certain > Python concepts properly. There are a few mistakes and oddities. Some of which rather important (I fail to see how it works at all the way you do it) but I have to investigate it further to correct and comment properly what's wrong. The most minor one is that in the following line: using_options(shortnames=True, tablename="my_man_table") the shortnames=True is totally useless as it's an option which is only used when you don't specify the table name manually.
