I use "virtualenv" (for "VIRTUAL ENVironmet") to separate projects.
Dieter, I know about virtualenv and tried using them. Found conflicting information and didn't know if I really needed them. I'll re-learn how to activate and use them. One project is for my own use and I understand now that a virtualenv with its own sys.path appendices would work. The other project is intended to be available for installation and use by clients (most of whom work in a Windows environment) so I need to learn how development in a virtual environment affects ultimate distribution via github.
If you are ready to use "virtual environment"s and ready to learn about advanved Python packaging facilities, then read the setuptools documentation (--> "https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/";).
This URL will likely teach me what I need to learn for both projects. Thanks very much. Best regards, Rich -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
