Hi John,

I'm using Maya 2012 (x64) and Wing 4.1.9-1, with a standalone install of 
PyMel 1.0.3.  maya.cmds.bindSkin comes up just fine--I haven't had any 
issues with maya.cmds.  However, pymel.core does not contain bindSkin() 
in the autocomplete options.  Another example is UI--none of the basic 
UI layouts or controls are available for autocompletion in pymel (and 
yes, they are present in maya.cmds).

On that note, I just did some experimentation with the source analysis 
settings.  When I remove a folder from the interface files section, 
bindSkin shows up in pymel.core--for a minute or so, and then it stops 
coming up again.  Also, on an interesting note, the docString for 
pm.bindSkin() comes up in the source assistant regardless.  So, it's 
finding it, but it seems to be getting confused in the completion area.

Hopefully that helps?
