def foo(bar):
print bar
d = {"foo":foo}
s = "foo"
params = "bar"
try: d[s](params)
except: KeyError
Then you can just put the allowed functions into the dictionary.

Is it possible to call a function or class by reference, aside from
using an eval approach?
What I would like to do is have a loop that processes functions by:
1. gettting the input that consists of a function and its parameters,
2. determining if the function is on an approved function list,
3. executing the function
4. rinse, repeat.
I don't actually mind eval, but I would want to make sure I inspect
everything pretty thorougly before executing.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
