Well, a type is essentially a class (in the OOP sense, not the python- specific classobj sense). You can call a type or class to create an instance of that class or type. Here, you call the 'instancemethod' type to create an instance of type 'instancemethod'. Makes sense ... in hindsight. -- Craig Ringer -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
