        Where is "self" coming from? Normally that is the first argument in a 
method.

        First off, A is a class, not an instance. __init__ is called when you 
create an instance of the class.

        I'm not even sure what you are asking, but does this do what you want?


>>> class A:
...     def __init__(self,test):
...             self.test = test
...
>>> anA = A('myTest')
>>> anA
<__main__.A instance at 0x809ea8c>
>>> dir(anA)
['__doc__', '__init__', '__module__', 'test']
>>> anA.test
'myTest'
>>> anotherA = A('Help me...')
>>> anotherA.test
'Help me...'
>>>
