I'm not sure what you're talking about...mainly because I'm not sure what you mean by a "symbols file". But I did some google-fu myself and found this CookBook entry: http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/200638 And this thread seems to be talking about symbol resolution, I think: http://www.python.org/search/hypermail/python-1994q2/0605.html And here's some weird site that claims to have a list of inseparable symbols, whatever that means: voicecode.iit.nrc.ca/VCodeWiki/public/wiki.cgi? obj=ListOfUnseparablePythonSymbols I can't get it to load unless I use Google's cached version though. Hope that helps and that I'm not too far off the mark! Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
