pythonwin basically just does a dir() of the name and the class, with special support for COM objects. See _AutoComplete() in pywin/scintilla/view.py - I'd be happy to accept patches which made it work better with ctypes. > import ctypes > print ctypes.windll.shell32.IsUserAnAdmin() And my followup is that pywin32-211 will have shell.IsUserAnAdmin() - but I'm still trying to work out how to build Roger's win32security changes which relate to Vista's UAC with the older compilers we need to support :( Oh - and also how to either (a) force bdist_wininst executables to request elevation or (b) have the .msi generation be smarter wrt upgrading so installation is reasonable on Vista. Does anyone here have bdist_msi experience?
