Interactive Interpreter Tab Completion

try:
    import readline
except ImportError:
    print "Unable to load readline module."
else:
    import rlcompleter
    readline.parse_and_bind("tab: complete")


>>> class myclass:
...    def function(self):
...       print "my function"
... 
>>> class_instance = myclass()
>>> class_instance.
class_instance.__class__   class_instance.__module__
class_instance.__doc__     class_instance.function
>>> class_instance.function()

You will also have to set a PYTHONSTARTUP environment variable.
