=== Existing Situation ===

Pippy provides example ~~scripts~~ written in Python, allows the learner to run them, edit them, and save them as a journal entry.

Pippy currently provides example ''script''s written in Python, allows the learner to run them, edit them, and save them as a journal entry. Pippy does not currently support creation of modules, or use of modules other than operating system- or Pippy-packaged modules.

~~See [http://docs.python.org/tutorial/~~modules~~.html definition of the term script and discussion~~ of modules].

[http://docs.python.org/distutils/introduction.html ~~for definitions~~] ... ~~module~~, pure python module~~, package~~.

=== Definitions ===
