Then this was very important information you should have mentioned in the first place. You told us originally you were trying to use python2, now you're claiming you're actually using jython. jython and python2 have nothing to do with each other. They don't use the same pythonpath, and jython can be installed without having python2 installed at all. jython ships its own independent copies of the standard library, byte-compiled into Java .class files instead of cpython .py files, and actually does include its own imp.py file which simply imports from jython.jar at org/python/modules/_imp.class I can just as easily import imp on jython as I can on python2 or python3. It's part of the stdlib, any python implementation (cpython, jython, pypy) is *required* to have it. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
