Importing Custom Libraries

[gopar]

Hello, I am trying to add custom libraries to python and when I try to import them in the PyShell (Editra) it gives me a no module found error. I have tried importing the library from the IDLE that comes when you install Python and it works without error. Is there a way that I can add them to PyShell? Also I have installed PIL (Python Image Library) and that also does not work. The only other library that was installed separately was WxPython and that works fine. Any answers would be appreciated.

Thank You,
Daniel G.

Are you using a binary version of Editra (editra.exe) or running Editra on your local python installation?

I used the .exe to install Editra. The custom importing of libraries only fails when importing in PyShell. Other than that, Editra is able to run my scripts that include my custom libraries without any trouble.

Ok that is probably the issue then. Editra.exe uses its own internal python and not your system one. IDLE runs on your system python so that is why the completion for the imports work. SInce Editra.exe is using its own internal python it is only able to provide completions for libraries that are bundled into Editra.

If your working on Python code mostly I would suggest installing editra as a python module either the .egg or 'python setup.py install' with the source bundle and running it with your system python. You will then be able to get autocompletion and PyShell support for any modules installed on that version of Python's lib folder.
