Hi, I'm a newbie at Python. :) Right now it's not letting me import * from any relative package name--i.e., a name that starts with a dot. For instance, none of the following work:
from . import * from .sibiling import * from .. import * from ..parent_sibling import * ...and so on. The same error occurs: SyntaxError: 'import *' not allowed with 'from .' (I have Python 2.5.1.) Why would it not let me import * from a relative module at all? I read that they're planning to make absolute imports the default, so I'd think that this sort of thing would become more common in the future. Thanks in advance! :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
