Project layout / Import files from different subdirectories

[Almar Klein]

If your main file is in the root of the project, you can just
use absolute imports. So you can use gui.anotherwindow
or project.important from all files.

I'm not sure this is good practice though...

I was first under the impression that you can always import
modules that are in your current working dir. But this seems
to not always work...
