Your fix is a definite improvement for me, my "run any importable" patch is looking a lot better. There's just one problem left, which is that runpy is overwriting sys.argv[0] even if it doesn't need to. So, when running from a zipfile, sys.argv[0] ends up None, which is wrong. However, if I ask runpy not to mess with sys, it creates a new module namespace to run the code in, bringing me right back to square one (i.e., not being run in __main__). Any thoughts? My fallback at this point would be to add an option to run_module() to request that sys.argv[0] be used in place of calling _get_filename(). It seems ugly to do that, though, if only because there are already so many arguments to that function. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
