It seems it works. It is not so straight-forward to me because I don't know about new-style types and classes very well, but I'm looking at type() and it makes full sense. I'll also look into new style classes. Thanks a lot. Anyway, just for the sake of asking: since I have no formal CS education (I'm a biophysics ph.d. student), I wonder if there is some kind of design pattern/coding tool that could work better/help me along simple inheritance for coding plugin architectures (inheritance probably works well in this case, but I'd like to know what's in the swiss army knife).
