This all seems a bit too complicated. Are you sure you want to do this? Maybe you need to step back and rethink your problem. Your example can be rewritten a number of different ways that are easier to think about. The simple approach: _x_counter = 0 def x(): _x_counter += 1 return _x_counter The generator approach: def counter_gen(): x = 0 while True: x += 1 yield x counter = counter_gen() counter.next() counter.next() # etc... A class-based approach: class Counter(object): def __init__(self): self._x = 0 def count(self): self._x += 1 return self._x In general, there really isn't a need to mess with stack frames unless you are really interested in looking at the stack frame. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
