Hi

I know there is a way to import from different Python installation but
I could not find the answer. I have Python 2.6 and 2.5


thanks

There's always the question of whether it's a good idea. My opinion is
that if you want to use python source files from another version, you
should *copy* them into your present version's syspath, and import them
as a 3rd party site-package. So it's a question of putting it in the
site-packages directory and adding a __init__.py file.

Alternatively, you can modify the sys.path, import it, then restore the
sys.path. With that hack, you can do anything.

You can probably achieve this by adjusting the pythonpath to
search through the site-packages directory of the other installation.
