the following:

>I defined function Fatalln in "mydef.py" and it works fine if i call it from "mydef.py", but when i try to call it from "test.py" in the same folder:
>import mydef
>...
>Fatalln "my test"
>i have NameError: name 'Fatalln' is not defined
>I also tried include('mydef.py') with the same result...
>What is the right syntax?
>Thanks

	mydef.Fatalln()

	The import only makes the module available. To use names from inside
the module you have to specify as module.name
