The thing is that the arguments of py_proc1 and py_proc2 are the same, but for a single argument. Which means that letting both of them first parse their own arguments means duplicated code. Which I do not really want and thus try to evade But yes, that is a possibility too. The "the function that does the actual work" part is what I tried to describe with my second example. > A clunkier way would be to make a new tuple that consists of the prepended > item and the items of args and pass that to py_proc1 as its args. That is what I tried to describe with my first example. The thing is I have no clue about what the above calling should look like (though I think I already found how to append my argument to the "args" string-object). In other words, do you have any idea of what either of those calling methods should look like ? An example perhaps ? Having only encountered the CPython API two days ago I'm still fumbling in the dark I'm afraid. Regards, Rudy Wieser -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
