hi all, i am trying to find out where is the part of the code in the python interpreter that opens up the .py file and parses it. in particular, i am trying to find the file open command in that file. I greped and i just want to make sure this is it: /Python-2.6/Parser/pgenmain.c i am intending to take a hash measurement of the .py file just before i open it to run the script. is the above file the right place to call for the measurement before the file open function? You want Parser/tokenizer.c.

Sorry, that's not correct. opening of modules happens in Python/import.c. There's also a case in Modules/main.c.
