Thank you! That works when I compile/exec it in the main body of the
program. However, when I try to do that in a separate module it
doesn't. For example:

Module Foo:
import compiler

class Foo:
	def __init__ (self):
		return
	def register (self, text):
		exec (compiler.compile (text, "<string>",
						"exec"))

File Bar:
import Foo

f = Foo.Foo ()
f.register ("def blah():\n\tprint 'blah'\n")

In this case, the function 'blah' is nowhere to be found. I've tried
looking in 'f', in the class 'Foo', in the module 'Foo' and it's
nowhere.
