Of course it's possible: use type(name, bases, dict).
Thanks, I never knew about that form of type(). Neither does the 2.5.2 reference manual, whose only index entry for the type() function is <http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/ref/objects.html#l2h-21>, and that speaks only about the traditional use of type() to check the type of an object.
help(type) does mention the form you show, though it doesn't explain what the dict is for.
Where would I find documentation on this nifty function? Thanks, - Joe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
