Surely you write your own programs. (program_name.py). You import and run them.
You may put SE.PY and SEL.PY into the same
directory. That's all.
Or if you prefer to keep other people's stuff in a different directory,
just make sure that directory is in "sys.path",
because that is where import looks. Check for that directory's presence in the
sys.path list:
>>> sys.path
['C:\\Python24\\Lib\\idlelib', 'C:\\', 'C:\\PYTHON24\\DLLs',
'C:\\PYTHON24\\lib', 'C:\\PYTHON24\\lib\\plat-win',
'C:\\PYTHON24\\lib\\lib-tk' (... etc) ]
Supposing it isn't there, add it:
>>> sys.path.append ('/python/code/other_peoples_stuff')
>>> import SE
That should do it. Let me know if it works. Else just keep asking.
