I don't know about the setup.py part of your question, but as for choosing between 2 modules at runtime: #file foo.py #assuming 'foo' is the desired name of the module from sys import platform SUN = 'sunos5' LINUX = 'linux2' WIN = 'win32' if platform == SUN: from x_1 import * elif platform == LINUX: from x_2 import * elif platform == WIN: from x_1 import * else: raise RuntimeError, "Unknown/unsupported platform" Cheers, Chris -- Follow the path of the Iguana... http://rebertia.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
