I personally took the easy way. I put my package of modules in
pthonxy/Lib/site-packages, which is already on the search path

from package import mymod
from package.mymod import myfunc

And how do I save the code in a different directory than the default,
c:\Python26?

For miscellaneous scripts, I use a directory I added? pythonxy/misc.

I edit with IDLE. When it starts up, the current directory is pythonxy/. When I start a new file, I immediately select save-as, change to ./misc, and save something.py. Note that one needs to type the .py even if the type is selected.

Also, I keep a ./misc/tem file. That is easy to select from 'recent files' on the menu. If I decide I want to keep the file, I save under a new name, leaving misc/tem to be erased and reused for another throwaway script.

The python uninstaller does not delete user-made directories.
When I install a new version, it is easy to move or copy to the new tree.
