A. sys.path.append I think A is not so pretty, and I don't have root privilege to use B and C. So any both more elegant and practical solutions? If, as I understand from your directory tree, ttt.py is a tester for sss.py, then I'd say this is the right option. It's only going to be used in the special environment of testing, so it's okay to have a single line of code up the top that makes it convenient.

You may need to use the sys module and add the path to your module temporarily. import sys sys.path.append(//path/to/myFile) Second question is about import wx. When i separate code into files i have to write import wx into every file because all of them contains some part of the interface. Does that make my program bigger than putting everything into one file and use only one import. Thanks in advance. No, importing wx in multiple files does not make it bigger. In fact, as I understand it, Python will only import a module if it's not already in the namespace. So if you import wx in your main module and then import it again in some sub-module of yours, Python won't actually import wx the second time, but will just use the one that's in the namespace already.

So what i was trying to do is to write part of my program in a separate file and than use import myFile as my to use classes written in that file.

The question is how to make this work (files are in the same folder) Please provide the exact error message, the part of the source code it refers to, and the command line you called the file by. Second question is about import wx. When i separate code into files i have to write import wx into every file because all of them contains some part of the interface. Does that make my program bigger than putting everything into one file and use only one import. Yes, the program gets a few bytes (11 for import wx\r\n) bigger. No, it is no performance problem.
