Hi, I'm sure this is a FAQ, but I have just not found clarity on the web/docs.
(using monospaced type to show the tree) trunk:$ tree . fp |-- fontypython | |-- __init__.py | |-- cli.py | |-- config.py (I start it all with ./fp) fp says: import cli cli.py says: import os import config config.py says: print os.environ['HOME'] I get a NameError in config.py If I add 'import os' to config.py all is well. So, I guess I am confused about the 'scope' of what gets imported where. I am thinking that if one module (py file) does *import os* something and *then* imports another module - the second module should have access to os too? I imagine myself "standing" inside cli.py at this point and saying "well I can see os, and I'm bringing config *into* this space, so they should be able to see os too." How do I structure things so that I don't have endless repetitions of import in every py file within my package directory? \d -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
