Hi, I've recently begun experimenting with embedding python and i got
a small problem.

The following line here is the ugly-hack I had to do to make it work,
nothing else I know of makes it possible to import modules from
startup directory. So my question is: Is there a prettier way to do
this?

The startup directory is not included in the module search path - neither in your embedded version, nor in the standard interpreter (it's only included when running in interactive mode).

PyRun_SimpleString("import sys\nsys.path.append(\"\")");

If you really want the current directory in sys.path, use the getcwd function to obtain it. But make sure this is what you want - the directory containing the executable might be a better choice (at least more predictable). Note that Python already provides lots of ways to add directories to sys.path (the default search path (see site.py), per-user site directories (see PEP370), .pth files, the PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME environment variables, the Windows registry, other ways I forgot...) So I'd ask why do you want to add a non-standard one.

In C code, you can alter the initial search path by setting Py_SetProgramName and Py_SetPythonHome. And you may even completely replace getpathp.c source file with your own.
