But when seeing the barename yy, it gives no clue whether the module you're reading used 'from xx import yy' or defined yy in any other way (localy, globally, or in any intermediate scope). 'from' has many other disadvantages, such as working badly with reload _except_ when used specifically to import a module. Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
