[Zope] function pre-declaration?

[philrobinson]

Does python not have a way to predeclare functions,
so I can keep 'main()' at the top and the utils at the
bottom of a file?

AFAIK, I have to go:
########################################

# Utility functions start here
def util_func():
  return 'a value'

# Main starts here
do_util()

########################################

but for readability I'd much rather go:
########################################

<some text to predeclare the function goes here>

# Main starts here
do_util()


# Utility functions start here
def util_func():
  return 'a value'

########################################

Anyone know? I can live without it, but I like to
have 'main' at the top so I can see what's supposed
to be going on without scrolling to the bottom of a
file first...
