<br>
</div>150 arguments? That seems far from sane for me, but the Pygments people seem to have a reason for it, I hope. :-)<br>
<br>
Maybe you can pack all those arguments into a tuple, effectively changing the call into a 1-argument call?<br>
<br>
Caller site:<br>
Change "result = function(a,b,c,d) into result = function((a,b,c,d))"<br>
<br>
Calee site:<br>
Change "def function(a,b,c,d):" to "def function(tuple):" \n " a,b,c,d = tuple"<br>

<br>
</div>As far as I can see, that class implements the _codecs module. The "codecs" module is a pure python module.<br>
<div class="im"><br>

<br>
</div>I can open the codec module just fine from the interactive console, in both 2.7.1b2 and 2.6.0.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
> I have noticed that there is a "_codecs" module, but it does not have e.g the `open` method.<br>
<br>
</div>The design is the same than in cPython: codecs.py is a high level module written in pure python, and it uses a low level native module _codecs internally. _codecs is a C-written Library in cPython (.dll or .so), while it is a C# class providing the same interface in IronPython. This allows IronPython to reuse the pure python part of the standard library.<br>
<div class="im"><br>
> What am I doing wrong?<br>
<br>
</div>Maybe your search path (sys.path) does not include the directory where the python standard library was installed? Or you did not install it at all?<br>
<br>
For me, it was installed by the IronPython installer.<br>
<br>
<br>
