"scans a python module and lists all classes and functions"

import sys
import re

ModuleToScan =3D sys.argv[1]

def ScanModule(ModuleToScan):
    ScanClass =3D re.compile("class")
    ScanDef =3D re.compile("def")

    fp =3D open(ModuleToScan)
    for line in fp.readlines():
        if ScanClass.search(line):
            print line
        elif ScanDef.search(line):
            print line
    fp.close()
    return

ScanModule(ModuleToScan)

works here.

I moved ScanClass and ScanDef into ScanModule because otherwise they woul=
d not=20
be defined.  Putting them in a separate function would have made sense if=
=20
they were also declared global.

Pay attention to whitespace, things must line up.
