I think console Vim could be done...but I was adding onto a Python
script that has a gargantuan Python menu (although, there are maps for
most everything...).  Also, I don't know how to test if Vim is in GUI
mode or not...  But I'm working on it...what way would you like the
functions and such displayed?  I can think of:

*	opening a new buffer with tags.  bad because whipes out the tags
	file and wastes precious space.
*	a big long list of maps.  bad because maps are hard to remember.

---There are _surely_ more than that, but my foresight ends there.  Any
more ideas?

PS: I have a new version, which fixes the bugs with classes and
functions, which I'll put on vim.sf.net, and on my website (
members.home.net/adam.seyfarth/vim/python.vim ).
