They are just a bunch of variables, but I don't want to put them into module scope because there may be other functions C and D with different settings. Of course I could collect them into an object and refer to them as o.x. Requires more typing though. What if I had: my_obj = common_variables() That set all these attributes, but then with function A I inject them into A's scope (shouldn't be too hard to do, I think)? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
