I think we're talking past one another... I kindof lost track of the
context, but I think the OP complained that there was code executing
that we didn't want to, while using PyChecker. Then you said he'd be
fine if he would put all top-level code in an if __name__ == "__main__"
clause. To which I meant to reply that by that definition of top-level
code you have to put the entire module inside the if, which renders the
module useless... Either I have been totally unclear or I simply
misunderstand you. I know we both know how it works, I was just trying
to pick nits and failed ;-)
