these are independent from everything else so you may want to start
looking at them first

gluon/html.py
gluon/template.py
gluon/highlight.py

this is also independent but complex (the dal)

gluon/sql.py

these are the main ones

gluon/widget.py
gluon/main.py
gluon/globals.py
gluon/compileapp.py

wsgibase in main.py is the most important function. You could say that
defines web2py.
build_environment in compileapp.py builds the environment as see by
your apps.
