So ./python Lib/test/regrtest.py and ./python Lib/test/test_something.py are both wrong? I note there's 26 files marked executable and 50 with #!/usr/bin/env python, so there's quite a bit of prior art in the "old way". Besides correcting the stdlib, adding a warning when running a script from a dir with __init__.py would help change the momentum. -- Adam Olsen, aka Rhamphoryncus _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
