Or he can use ipython, which with the special ipython.el companion file and a recent (CVS) python-mode, will give him true tab completion (with options listed in an emacs *completions* buffer) for all objects. With ipython's %pdb active, it will also open up the source at any uncaught exception, at the line of the exception. Very handy for debugging. Regards, f ps. All this fanciness is thanks to the sustained efforts of A. Schmolck and P. Ramachandran, I'm just happy to use them (I can't code a line of elisp). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
