I want to occasionally do a "redirected" import of a python module which is located offside of the legacy sys.path (Windows) - for example a tool is maintained within "cgi-bin" web stuff (while I do not want to add that whole folder's stuff to the sys.path)
.pth adds only directories to the python path. is there a convenient/short method to create a python "module pointer" (file) to such module - maybe just create such pointer file somewhere on the python path (in my "sitetools") ? If no clean method, what is the best ad-hoc trick? ( In addition to what mere UNIX links would do, it should be consistent pythonic: such module can import neighbor modules (relatively), create the .pyc's next to the code... ) Is such stuff more easy and consistent with py2.5's relative imports? Are such module pointers maybe supported somehow in py2.5? robert -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
