My most interesting python question is related to the "file... import ..." command. Apparently, you can't specify a parent folder in the file portion, just the current one. But there is a way to designate where other files may be found, I just haven't figured out where that gets set, especially when using environments.
You can't specify operating system paths in the import command; those modules need to be in known locations where Python can find them. When you install something (usually with `pip install`), it is placed in the 'site-packages' directory of your environment. I started to write a big long explanation here, but decided that it would be better as a blog post:

Of course, if you have any questions about that, let me know.
