C/C++ Import

[Austin Bingham]

Just to elaborate on Terry's point a bit, sys.path is influenced (in
part) by the PYTHONPATH environment variable. If you find that the
directory containing 'python' is not in sys.path (which you can check
with 'import sys; print sys.path'), add that directory to PYTHONPATH
and try again. This may not be the solution you ultimately end up
using, but it'll get you pointed in the right direction.
