I ran into the same problem some time ago and even wanted to post here about it, but found out that it had been reported as a bug three times at sourceforge (if i remember correctly). The comments there explained it of course, but I still think that this behavior is somehow "wrong". I like to think of the import statement as a way to provide the names defined in a module to the current namespace, so there is no "this gets evaluated twice". Now i wonder how difficult it would be to "correct" the behavior? And would such a change break any code? David. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
