[Eric] using eric4 to debug django project

[Jake B]

I'm getting a bit confused now, because I've added my eric workspace to my
PYTHONPATH, and can import all the modules in my eric workspace from the
python interpreter run from any directory on my system, but when run from
within eric, the modules still cannot import one-another. Also, the eric
python interpreter shell cannot import these modules, even though they are
part of my project, and on my global PYTHONPATH.
Is there a best-practices way of making visible python packages that are in
the same directory and sharing the same project? If not, is there a way to
at least troubleshoot eric to determine what it is using for its PYTHONPATH?
Please let me know. Thanks.

Jake
