So today, I created a file called 'formatter.py', and my program broke. It turned out that I was also import 'gluon' from web2py, which in turn, somewhere, imported the regular python formatter.py with which I was not familiar.
So the question is: Does one simply always have to be knowledgeable about existing python library names, or is having '.' in the python path just a bad idea? Is there a way, not having '.' in the path to explicitly specify the current directory? Something analogous to import ./foo ? Thanks, Tobiah -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
