Andy
thx for that. I had a file called 'tktest.py' lying around, and I did:
'>>> a = compiler.parseFile('tktest.py')
And "a" looks something like this:
***
Stmt([Import([('Tkinter', None)]), Function(None, 'add_rows', ['w', 'titles', 'rows'], [], 0, None, Stmt([Discard(CallFunc(Getattr(Name('w'), 'configure'), [Keyword('state', Const('normal'))], None, None)), For(AssName('r', 'OP_ASSIGN'), Name('rows'), Stmt([For(AssTuple([AssName('t', 'OP_ASSIGN'), AssName('v', 'OP_ASSIGN')]), CallFunc(Name('zip'), [Name('titles'), Name('r')], None, None), Stmt([Discard(CallFunc(Getattr(Name('w'), 'insert'), [Const('end'), Mod((Const('%s:\t%s\n'), Tuple([Name('t'), Name('v')])))], None, None))]), None), Discard(CallFunc(Getattr(Name('w'), 'insert'), [Const('end'), Const('\n')], None, None))]), None), Discard(CallFunc(Getattr(Name('w'), 'configure'), [Keyword('state', Const('disabled'))], None, None))])), Assign([AssName('app', 'OP_ASSIGN')], CallFunc(Getattr(Name('Tkinter'), 'Tk'), [], None, None)), Assign([AssName('t', 'OP_ASSIGN')], CallFunc(Getattr(Name('Tkinter'), 'Text'), [Name('app'), Keyword('state', Const('disabled'))], None, None)), Discard(CallFunc(Getattr(Name('t'), 'pack'), [], None, None)), Assign([AssName('info', 'OP_ASSIGN')], List([List([Const('Ali'), Const(18)]), List([Const('Zainab'), Const(16)]), List([Const('Khalid'), Const(18)])])), Discard(CallFunc(Name('add_rows'), [Name('t'), List([Const('Name'), Const('Age')]), Name('info')], None, None)), Discard(CallFunc(Getattr(Name('app'), 'mainloop'), [], None, None))])

Pretty impressive :)
Do you know of more batteries that can process this stuff further, for interest sake (and maybe the OP)?
thx again Caleb

You'll want to use the "compiler" package. compiler.parseFile will return an AST that you can inspect (which is not really 'reflection', btw).
