You can use os.environ to putconfiguration (environment) parameters, such as config file, there.This way globalisms will belong to the environment, not your program ;-)(its half-joke)*I remember one of my programs where I had similar problem:config file was written relative to argv[0].So, I needed to determine it first. Thus I conclude youneed to get commandline options before any other config-specificthings. What if they contain only --help ;-)>Regards,>Graham>Sincerely yours, Roman Suzi-- _/ Russia _/ Karelia _/ Petrozavodsk _/rnd at onego.ru _/_/ Sunday, April 29, 2001 _/ Powered by Linux RedHat 6.2 _/_/ "Macho does not prove Mucho." _/
