What exactly are you trying to accomplish?  If you want to index
function/class names, variables, etc then you should take a look at
"exuberant ctags" http://ctags.sourceforge.net --although it started
off as a C indexer, it has excellent Python support, it's free, and as
a bonus its indices are well supported from inside major editors (vim,
emacs, etc) so you can easily follow code flow, find function/class
definitions, etc.
