Hmm. I've created several apps using the startapp command, but I don't see any references to those apps when I print sys.path.
Does something happen behind the scenes when I use the startapp command that isn't visible when I print sys.path? If so, why not run the startapp command for all apps? For example, to install the tagging app, I could create an app called "tagging" with startapp. Then I could replace the contents of that directory with the tagging app I download from code.google.com. Would that work? -Ryan On Nov 16, 1:01 pm, Steve Holden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > webcomm wrote: > > Maybe I'm starting to get the idea... can apps be installed anywhere, > > as long as they are on the python path?
