Currently you can do this using packages. Convert module into package, make the thunk subdirectory, and write you code into module/thunk/__main__.py. Invoking "python -m module.thunk" will execute that code. Invoking "python -m module" will execute the code in module/__main__.py. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/ZE4VZYWF5FPHRKUXCAYLB4JHG4R5TPJI/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
