Why hard code the directory?
You can find out where python is running simply by getting the directory
path...
or if you insist on hard coding....
"./Extras" would work.... As long as in the python directory...
IMHO, Anything that has a absolute path will eventually break... Or run into
a problem...
For example, remember Apple's issues with the Itunes v3.00 release, where it
accidently "deleted" entire hard drives due to absolute path issues?
