Why Python is Important for You

Yeah, that's fun ;-) I wish there was a

    if main:
        ... # do some processing

instead of having to write:

    if __name__ == "__main__":
        ... # do some processing

That'd make DHH happy, too ;-)

I find that the best way to fix this is to write your program as a library, then the part that you're supposed to run as a script which imports and runs it. No __underscore__magic__ required.
