Comment 7 for bug 893275

As ever, the devil is in the details...

First of all i have tried to make a python script for the website which lives in the directory _ops. Calling this script fails some how. It looks like python doesn't allow access to folders or files beginning with an underscore...

Then i tried to put my script in the base directory of the website, then it works, but calling extract_rst.py through execfile() do not work. I get an error:

curdir = p.abspath(p.dirname(__file__))
     86 source_dir = p.join(curdir, 'source')
     87 while not (p.exists(p.join(curdir, 'data/tribes')) and p.exists(p.join(curdir, 'data/world'))):

NameError: global name 'p' is not defined

I do not understand that. Maybe the double use of 'import os' is the culprit?
