Addendum, some file objects have a name attribute (which I hadn't noticed until today): file.name If the file object was created using open(), the name of the file. Otherwise, some string that indicates the source of the file object, of the form <...>. This is a read-only attribute and may not be present on all file-like objects. http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#file-objects -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
