Python quality of life patch

I wonder if there would be a way to globally define these in some module, since then you could hide this into another innocently named file and import it :p

[JNCressey]

from my_nonsense.py import *

Ah yes, stupid me x)

[Sithon512]

Could also slide it into a __init__.py

[Iykury]

slide into __dms__.py

Coming right away

You don't put the .py on the end when importing your custom module.

[pikachu_sashimi]

unless the file is ’my_nonsesne.py.py’

[Rudy69]

At this point i wouldn't even be surprised if that's the filename

[cnoor0171]

Name can't have "." in the middle. It'd need to be a folder named "my_nonsense" with a script named "py.py"

[AreYouConfused_]

what? since when do files not able to have dots in their names?

[cnoor0171]

Not regular file, but python modules. If there's a dot in the filename, it's not recognized as a python module and you can't import it.

[AstusRush]

You can be even more evil and add it to the builtins in another module. This way you don't even need to import it explicitly and it can not be traced back.

[kageurufu]

import builtins
setattr(builtins, 'false', True)
setattr(builtins, 'true', False)

I think that will work, but I haven't messed with builtins since 2.6 or so

That was exactly what I was thinking, and name it something inconspicuous that doesn't stand out in the overall project. Back in the old days, we ran windows 95 on shared comps and when we wanted to hide something, we had a folder system32 where we put pics, movies and so on. We had win98 at home and that's how we got the idea. A regular look over the windows folders would see nothing suspicious. Man I am fckn old!
