Thank you for that Arnaud, and thanks to Chris R. I'm going along with Chris's suggestion for the moment. One issue I have run into, which may or may not be a problem: I am finding that modules in the in-house "library" package sometimes have to import modules like sys and os, which are also imported by the "calling" module. Is this a problem or an overhead, or does it just result in two names for the same object? Thanks again. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
