Thanks norseman for the reply. You're right that I didn't like it though. :-)
Also note that my original question has to do with importing modules from different locations. If all I had to do was use different paths within the script (e.g. for sending to os.path.join or whatever), then I could just put those in a config file. That's not a problem...
