[Visualpython-users] wave.py conflict

[Laurent P. <Lau...@lo...>]

Hello Bruce,

When you use VPython to analyse audio signals, there is a conflict 
between the modules wave.py from Python's standard library and wave.py 
from VPython's demos programs.

I know how to manage with this conflict, but I think it would be better 
if you could rename the module wave.py as waves.py in the distribution 
of VPython.

VPython is great.

Thanks a lot.

I don't understand; wave.py should never be on the module search path.
How is it getting imported instead of the wave module?
