I don't really know how to respond to this, to be honest. If your
script is in your PYTHONPATH, then you should be able to import it. If
you haven't imported it, then you can't access it. If you can't import
it, then you have something wrong in either your environment, or you
put it in a sub-directory that doesnt have an __init__.py
Python scripts should not go in your mel script path.

custom scripts folder, I get the first error; when placed in the

contains MEL scripts, typically, the other Python. And if the

I've placed other Python scripts in the path which is in my

I imagine you are trying to call the script name and not

Justin is asking you to post *exactly what are you are
trying to do*, what code you are trying to execute. Please
don't make people on this list try to guess what you are
doing with hypothetical questions. This disrespects the
time and knowledge of the people you are calling on.
Don't say "when running the script command". *Paste

General question about scripts, some scripts
tell you to place them in your python
directory, whether that is your Maya default
installation directory or a custom directory
set forth by your maya env variable file. At
the moment my scripts are all throw in a
custom python scripts folder, quite messy, I
have begun placing the scripts within the
python scripts folder, but within a
respectful directory for organization, and
also for easy upgrading of scripts, maybe
some of you do this as well ?
They don't have to specifically be placed in
Maya's python locations. They just need to be in
the PYTHONPATH by some means. Like you said, this
may have been extended via the Maya.env or
otherwise.
Since beginning to do this, I get when
running the script command, whatever that may
be for a particular script; I get the
following error; *<script name> is not
defined error* ?
Is this the actual python error? What were you
trying to execute, and where was it located on
your file system?
This is the actual error, although the script is
not called <script name> you knew that, that is
strictly a placeholder for the actual script name.
I placed the script in my pythonscripts path and I
get that error, does it matter if the script is
within a folder in the pythonscripts path ?
Again... what exactly were you trying to execute?
Where does this script live on the filesystem?
If you are seeing that error, then something is
incorrect in your configured PYTHONPATH. If you are
placing scripts into sub-directories of your target
PYTHONPATH location, make sure you are including empty
__init__.py files in each one. These are required in
order to indicate to the python import mechanism that
it should traverse into these directories to treat
them as packages.
