Class Descriptor Objects
------------------------
The class descriptor objects used as values in the dictionary returned
by `readmodule()' provide the following data members:
`module'
The name of the module defining the class described by the class
descriptor.
`name'
The name of the class.
`super'
A list of class descriptors which describe the immediate base
classes of the class being described. Classes which are named as
superclasses but which are not discoverable by `readmodule()' are
listed as a string with the class name instead of class
descriptors.
`methods'
A dictionary mapping method names to line numbers.
`file'
Name of the file containing the class statement defining the class.
`lineno'
The line number of the class statement within the file named by
`file'.
