title: How do you alias a python class to have another name without using inheritance?
body: <p>If I have a python class, how can I alias that class-name into another class-name and retain all it's methods and class members and instance members?  Is this possible without using inheritance?</p>
  
  <p>e.g. I have a class like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>class MyReallyBigClassNameWhichIHateToType:
      def __init__(self):
           &lt;blah&gt;
      [...]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm creating an interactive console session where I don't want my users' fingers to fall off while instantiating the class in the interactive sessions, so I want to alias that really long class name to something tiny like 'C'.  Is there an easy way to do this without inheritance?</p>
