# This module provides standard support for "packages".
#
# The idea is that large groups of related modules can be placed in
# their own subdirectory, which can be added to the Python search path
# in a relatively easy way.
#
# The current version takes a package name and searches the Python
# search path for a directory by that name, and if found adds it to
# the module search path (sys.path). It maintains a list of packages
# that have already been added so adding the same package many times
# is OK.
#
# It is intended to be used in a fairly stylized manner: each module
# that wants to use a particular package, say 'Foo', is supposed to
# contain the following code:
#
# from addpack import addpack
# addpack('Foo')
# <import modules from package Foo>
#
# Additional arguments, when present, provide additional places where
# to look for the package before trying sys.path (these may be either
# strings or lists/tuples of strings). Also, if the package name is a
# full pathname, first the last component is tried in the usual way,
# then the full pathname is tried last. If the package name is a
# *relative* pathname (UNIX: contains a slash but doesn't start with
# one), then nothing special is done. The packages "/foo/bar/bletch"
# and "bletch" are considered the same, but unrelated to "bar/bletch".
#
# If the algorithm finds more than one suitable subdirectory, all are
# added to the search path -- this makes it possible to override part
# of a package. The same path will not be added more than once.
#
# If no directory is found, ImportError is raised.
_packs = {} # {pack: [pathname, ...], ...}
