You can use the __file__ attribute of a module: In [9]: csv.__file__ Out[9]: '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/csv.pyc' For a function use the __module__ attribute to get the module: In [10]: csv.reader.__module__ Out[10]: '_csv' This is a string so you have to do a little more work to get the file: In [12]: import sys In [13]: sys.modules[csv.reader.__module__].__file__ Out[13]: '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_csv.so' Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
