I have two versions of a script on my machine. One version is for new
development and the other version is a production version. This script
imports a module from a different directory, and this module again has two
versions (a development version and a production version). What I want is
for the development script to import the development module, and the
production script to import the production module, without making any
changes to the code in the script.
For example, suppose the development script is in ~/dev/rss.py, and the
production script is in ~/prod/rss.py. I want the dev version to import
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lib_dev/parse.py, and the prod version to
import usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lib_prod/parse.py.
My first instinct was to place a .pth file in ~/dev that points to
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lib_dev, and a .pth file in ~/prod that
points to /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lib_prod, but it seems that
site.py doesn't look at .pth files in the current working directory. My
next attempt was to create a symbolic link in ~/dev called parse.py,
pointing to /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lib_dev/parse.py, and a
symbolic link in ~/prod called parse.py, pointing to
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lib_prod/parse.py, but that didn't work
either.
Can anybody suggest a way to achieve my goal? Thanks in advance.

Yes, but you may not like it.
I do what you do. Prod and devel subdirs.
I store the paths in a var at the top of my programs.
I change it(them) when the program graduates.
example:
#!/usr/local....
..
..
DvlpPATH=...... #usually a full hardcoded path ending with a '/'
#FnlPATH=.....
..
..
PATH2USE=DvlpPA TH #which gets changed to FnlPATH when graduating
# I keep the DvlpPATH until I'm positive I'm not
# going to send it back to school
x= os.open(PATH2US E+"pgm_or_file. ext", 'r+b')
and so forth
If the there is a need, I'll hardcode to a branch point and create sub
branch vars as needed and chain as needed.
company_one + accounting + payables + vendors
+ inventory + shelf + vendors
+ real_property + locations
company_two + (same as above)
you get the idea
YES! You do have to change the code. But in one place only once you are
correctly set.

The pythonic way of programming requires, as far as I know, to spread a

I have a large project that is getting complex, and I would like to
print the docstrings without importing the modules. The only Python
utility I could find references is apparently defunct and hasn't been
updated in 4 years.
I don't care how spartan the output is - it could look exactly like
python's internal docstrings, for all I care. It would be a nice added
bonus if it printed to HTML, but not if it greatly increased the

Hi,
as title implies, I wrote a simple module that allows importing modules
or even packages via http, conceptually similar to zipimport (of which I
learned about during the process of writing urlimport, and found it very
useful).
The module is fresh new as it was written today, and tested only on a
few packages (moinmoin wiki and twisted).

Hi,
I've found the following behaviour on importing a variable from a

3.0b2.
In summary, here's what happens. I have a module, oddmodule.py
(below), that defines a variable, OddVariable, by assigning a value A
to it. The file I execute, mainfile.py, imports and re-binds
OddVariable to a value B. I have two test modules which import the

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
