[Bill B. <bb...@co...>]

Doesn't appear to work either -- likely because we both reversed the

 >>> isinstance(d, NSDictionary)
1

(This was what I was originally going to send)

 >>> from Foundation import *
 >>> d = NSMutableDictionary.dictionary()
 >>> d

 >>> isinstance(NSDictionary, d)
Traceback (most recent call last):

 >>> isinstance(NSDictionary, type(d))

 >>> isinstance(NSDictionary, d.__class__)

thanks!
