Would you store the directory name somewhere? Would you import the module and look at os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(module.__file__))? Or just scan to see where the module would be? If you store the directory name somewhere then you have another absolute path. This is why, for simplicity, I thought it should be relative to the directory where the record file is (lots of extraneous ../, but the most obvious meaning of a relative filename). -- Ian Bicking | http://blog.ianbicking.org
