Ezio Melotti <ezio.melotti@gmail.com> added the comment: What about "In order to use ``sys.argv`` you have to import the :mod:`sys` module doing ``import sys``.". "reference" sounds weird to me, and imho saying "import the module" is ok even if imports have not been introduced yet. If the user doesn't understand what "importing a module" means he can just execute the command as is. ---------- nosy: +ezio.melotti _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10559> _______________________________________
