console.set_font sets the size of the OUTPUT font. I like that a lot as a larger font size is easier on my eyes. However, is there a way to increase the size of the font in the INPUT line ( the line above the keyboard)?

RE: How to import user defined modules?
Thank you very much for this discussion, I understand a lot more abuot the mechanisms behind imports and sys.path and I believe that I can solve or at least work around most issues. However, I think it is a good idea to provide a bit more control about the contents of sys.path.
Would it be possible to add a setting where you can check for each directory in your user space if it has to be included in sys.path?

RE: How to import user defined modules?
Dgelessus was right, the directory from which the last script was run is the first entry in sys.path. This inspired the following workaround: put an empty script in the directory from which you want to import. Run it, and the directory is on the path. You can import modules from that directory!

RE: How to import user defined modules?
No, Documents is not on the path at all. Strange that we have different paths... I was aware of site-packages but it is much easier to develop in anorher directory and import directly from there. When the module is complete it can be moved to site-packages.
Thanks for the tip about os.path.expanduser! I considered adding a directory to sys.path but typing an absolute path is nearly impossible. Expanduser makes it possible.
Thanks!

RE: How to import user defined modules?
These are the directories in sys.path (slghtly edited to remove the prefix from root to app):
/Documents/Examples/Animation
/Documents/site-packages
/Pythonista.app/Frameworks/PythonistaKit.framework/pylib
/Pythonista.app/Frameworks/PythonistaKit.framework/pylib_ext
/Pythonista.app/Frameworks/PythonistaKit.framework/pylib/site-packages
/Pythonista.app/Frameworks/PythonistaKit.framework/pylib/site-packages/PIL_compatDocuments itself is not on the path, neither are its subdirectories. Is this a bug? Is it possible to add directories to the path?

How to import user defined modules?
Hi,
Although not at all new to programming, I am new to Python(ista). Let me state upfront that I am really impressed. There are only a few full fledged programming environments for iOS and Pythonista is one of the best. However, I have a few questions.
If I understand correctly there is only little difference between scripts and modules. Both are files with a .py extension. Scipts contain definitions and executable statements (but there are exceptions) and modules contain only definitions (but there are exceptions).
I used the script editor to create a .py file and tried to import it as a module in the interactive prompt. However I get an error message that no module with that name can be found.
How can I define a module and import it in a script or in the interactive prompt?
Thanks for any help!
