For example, without knowing anything of your purpose, I could simply say that writing a module with a series of import statements, one per module in the target subdirectory, is the "best" way, and I could easily defend that as "best" against all other possible approaches until we knew what the real reason for doing this was. (Your extra detail on the regex thing makes it clear that the above approach would not be "best", but I think that just goes to show that until we know why you want this, we cannot possibly answer your question properly.) -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
