follow the instructions in Jason S's post...this should allow you to do what
you want
1) add your project to your sys.path:
import sys
sys.path.append("/path/to/your/tubogears/thing")
2) pull your config into your job script, like so:
import turbogears
turbogears.update_config(configfile="dev.cfg",
modulename="project_name.config")
then your script should run fine.
