Yes;by using its name;global scope. Why not try it for yourself? N.B. Functions in Python do not exist until the def statement is executed, so the code like your sample will fail to find 'main' if you try to call it from inside the class body. A call from inside an instance method would be fine though (provided you didn't call it until main was defined), or a call from the class body would also be fine provided you define main before you define the class. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
