How to add a Python import path using a .pth file

Question

If I put a *.pth file in site-packages it's giving an `ImportError`. I'm not getting how to import by creating a *.pth file. (Refers to importing in python)

Accepted Answer

If you put a `.pth` file in the `site-packages` directory containing a path, python searches this path for imports. So I have a `sth.pth` file there that simply contains:

```
K:\Source\Python\lib
```

In that directory there are some normal Python modules:

```
logger.py
fstools.py
...
```

This allows to directly import these modules from other scripts:

```
import logger

log = logger.Log()
...
```
