Why does importing usb.core work in the shell, but not in a new window?

Question

My problem is when I try to import usb.core or usb or just usb.util outside the shell window, in a new window. When I hit run, on the shell windows its says

"ImportError: No module named core".

But when I import usb on the shell window or in python command line it works fine!!

Answer 1

Your PYTHONPATH is being set differently in the shell than in your target window.

Run this code to be sure:

import sys
print sys.path

Compare on both platforms.
