> Oops, just found a mistake. In non-Sage library code, when doctesting
"file0.py", we write a line
{{{
from file0 import *
}}}
> With the name mangling, this doesn't work anymore: the periods confuse
things, and so would hyphens, commas, and other symbols not allowed in
python module names.
Hence underscores, which I originally thought of?
It doesn't make sense to copy [only] each single non-library file to
doctest to the temporary directory anyway, as it might import other files
located in the original directory.
We could either just `cd` to the original directory, or -- IMHO much
better -- add the original directory to `PYTHONPATH` or `sys.path`, both
methods solving the mangling issue in `from ... import *`, as well as
saving useless copying. (We of course still have to create temporary
preparsed files in `SAGE_TESTDIR/.../` for `.sage` and `.spyx` files
though.)
