This does not seem to work. I still get the default value 5007 when i run $python txd.py - p5006 $python testme.py
***txd.py*** global options parser = OptionParser() parser.add_option("-p", "--port", dest="port", default=5007, type="int", help="port to connect to for remote interpreter") options, args = parser.parse_args() **testme.py** from txd import options print options.port -Ashton -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
