Helmut,
I found the second reference (the one above) very useful thank you.
Most other respondents to my original question did not seem to
understand what I was asking or didn't read the question and simply
proceeded to re-state what I had quoted from Beazley - well I understood
what he was saying, I simply wanted to find out how Python did it at a
lower level. Your reference answered the question ;-)
Thanks,
Peter
