I don't think M.__file__ should lie and say it was loaded from a file that it wasn't loaded from. It's useful to be able to look at a module and see what file it was actually loaded from.
On the other hand, it could be useful to be able to find the source file for a module, regardless of whether it was loaded from a .py, .pyc or .pyo. Maybe there should be a __source__ attribute for that? Or is os.path.splitext(M.__file__)[0] + ".py" considered good enough for that? -- Greg _______________________________________________ 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
