Thank you. Do you know also if I can do a similar operation with functions? I want to select with a string a certain get() function of ConfigParser:

if   type == "int" :
    funcname = "getint"
elif type == "bool" :
    funcname = "getboolean"
etc.

How can I invoke the funcion with its name in a string?

PS: your answers had not arrived to my mail account. Is because I'm using a disposal address? Or simply it's because I'm not registered to the list?
