I don't think you need to worry. The python primitive "id" returns a unique identifier for it's argument (I recall reading the it's the memory location of the object). Anyway, I have a module called foo.py which has this import sys print id(sys) Then I start python and do this import sys print id(sys) 3084566644 import foo 3084566644 id(foo.sys) 3084566644 sys is foo.sys True So, it is the same object. You don't have to worry. Peace. -- ~noufal _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
