I don't really understand the problem (could you give some (fictional) working sample how you plan to use this and leave out the line numbers for better readability?) but perhaps using traditional tuples and dicts instead of */** unpacking would be enough? Like:: superfoo(fooargs=(1,2,3), fookwargs={'foo': 'bar}, objargs=('a', 'b'), objkwargs={'x': 5}) Cheers, Stargaming -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
