Sorry, the source was for my tkinter question. I'm a bit disorganized
today.
The problematic part is the 11. line, where I have to convert the item
selected from the list to an object, or something like that. At the
moment it only applies to a string object, but I want to call the
function for the object, represented by the string. (If you run it, it
will become more obvious what I mean.)

I'm a newbie to Python. I wanted to write a graphical interface which
would show the built-in documentation (I mean dir() and __doc__ ) of
Python. The code shows how far I got before realizing that I had to use
some self-modification feature (converting a string to a function or to
an object; i'm not sure you would call it self-modification in an
interpreted language).
I was googling around, and searching in the maillist archives and found
this:

Unanswered for two years. Not too promising :)
P.S.: I'm new to this mailing list, so I don't know whether it is
allowed to send code as attachment. (I didn't found anything about your
policy in the subscription site. ) If not, I'm sorry.
