Maybe not, but it's hardly good design either. Any time I wish for gratuitous complexity or broken-by-design-ness I can easily use Perl or AppleScript instead. :p >try: > from LaunchServices import Launch, LaunchServices >except ImportError: > from Carbon import Launch, LaunchServices I figured that, but I'd rather hoped a more elegant solution might be forthcoming at source. Is there a good reason why they couldn't both agree on a common location, or at least provide the relevant aliases in 2.4 to preserve Python's much-vaunted backwards compatibility?
