I am looking for an example of metaclass usage. Especially I am
interestet
in manipulating instance variables, for example:

My class:
class MrMeta(type):
        pass

class Mr(object):
        __metaclass__ = MrMeta

        def __init__(self):
                self.imvariable = 'Zmienna self'

        def aome method(self):
                print 'I am in instance'

So in general, I would like to create a mechanism, that is changing
value
for self.imvariable to capital letters and this should be included
in my
metaclass called MrMeta(type).

Can you guide me please?

Are you sure you can't just use a descriptor, such as @property?

class Mr(object):
    @property
    def imvariable(self):
        return self._imvariable
    @imvariable.setter
    def imvariable(self, value):
        self._imvariable = str(value).upper()

I am sure that I can do that with setter/getter, but I want to be
closer to black magic, that is why I wanted to inlcude Metaclasses.

I know how to acomplish that for class variables, but don;t have any
idea how to instance.

Metaclasses work on the class level, not the instance level.  The only*
influnce a metaclass is going to have on instances is changes it makes
while it's creating the class.

For example, MrMeta could set descriptors in Mr when it is creating the
Mr class; it could even put it's own __init__ in the class; but to
affect things like instance variables that are added in methods -- well,
it is possible, but it is *a lot* of work.

Ok,so in general, we could say that using Metclasses is ok for manipulating __new__ but not that what is setting by __init__. Am I right?
