IIRC, the reason I avoided that originally was due to the potential confusion between C's main and Python's main. I don't know why I didn't think of Fred's suggestion of "Programs" - I think that contrasts nicely with Modules, so I'd like to run with that. Cleanly separating out the main functions affected the PEP 432 feature branch directly because the whole point of that PEP is to make all of them simpler by moving more of the relevant code into the shared library. However, I really *don't* want to dive into the seemingly random allocation of some things between the Python/ subdir and the Modules/ subdir . If there's a consistent pattern there, I think it may be lost somewhere back in the 20th century, as I've never been able to figure one out...
