Hi,
another beginner's question:
when I import a module, change the corresponding textfile and try to
import the same module again, it looks like the internal code does not
change (the source-line in an error-message is up to date, however!). Also
del module before import and deleting the .pyc file do not help! How to
realize a fast edit-try-cycle? (btw: I am using python 2.2 under windows)
thanks in advance!

What you're looking for is the reload() function.
Normally, an imported module is cached by the interpreter, and
subsequent imports go straight to the cache without checking whether the
file has changed or not. If you reload(), that specifically clears the
cache and imports from the (current) disk file again.

That works, but with a very important caveat: reload() does not
change anything in the module that's currently being referred to.
This can lead to very subtle bugs, and all IDE/debugger combinations
don't handle it properly.
What I do is keep a command line open under Windows, and
I create a .cmd file with a very short name. It takes about three
keystrokes to run the test (alt-tab, t, return), and one keystroke
to get back to the IDE (alt-tab). This reloads my unit test suite
and runs it.
