hello,

I've pictures stored in a path relative to my python source code.
To get a picture, I need to know what path I'm on in each python module.
I thought __file__ would do the job,
but apparently I didn't read the documentation carefully enough,
because file is the path to the module that called my module.

Any ways to get the path of "myself" ?

I'm not sure what you mean. I just did a quick test.

# File: C:\Quick test\child.py
print "name is %s" % __name__
print "file is %s" % __file__

# File: C:\Quick test\parent.py
import child

print "name is %s" % __name__
print "file is %s" % __file__

# Output:
name is child
file is C:\Quick test\child.py
name is __main__
file is C:\Quick test\parent.py
Yes, that's what I (and many others) thought,
but now put your code in a file, let's say the file "test.py",
and now run this file by :
   execfile ( 'test.py' )

cheers,
Stef
