Thanks for replying but I am able to execute independent python programs. So that's not what my earlier query was all about. Retrying, with another MM example: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/annotate/head:/Mailman/Archiver/Archiver.py, where the Archiver.py file will import the following program/ modules to run. from Mailman import Mailbox from Mailman import Utils from Mailman import Site from Mailman.SafeDict import SafeDict from Mailman.Logging.Syslog import syslog from Mailman.i18n import _ , This results in the "ImportError" (mentioned earlier). Besides "from Mailman import Mailbox" in turn refers to email and its path is: sys.path.append("/home/<$user>/mailman-2.1.10/misc/email-2.58/email/"). So if I set this path inside each of of these *.pyfiles, using --- sys.path.append("/home/<$user>/mailman-2.1.10/Mailman/") command, etc... <== I'm able to test-run it. But without the path setting, the program fails throwing errors. Editing each *.py file to append it with "sys.path" is a tedious process. So I'd like to know, whether there exists a better method to set the path externally without changing each program file? I'd like to execute these programs independently. Hope that explains my earlier query a bit more.
