[libreoffice-users] Re: Python and sys.argv.

I have my python macros placed in *My Macro*s .
My problem is that I cannot import *argv* to a macro. When I  use *from sys
import argv* the system replies: *cannot import name argv* and  if I use
*print(sys.dir(argv))* to get the content of *sys *I can see that *argv* Is
missing.See the following two below!

*Python  ver. 2.6.1 (LibreOffice ver. 3.6.5.2)*
['__displayhook__', '__doc__', '__excepthook__', '__name__', '__package__',
'__stderr__', '__stdin__', '__stdout__', '_clear_type_cache',

'setcheckinterval', 'setdlopenflags', 'setprofile', 'setrecursionlimit',
'setswitchinterval', 'settrace', 'stderr', 'stdin', 'stdout', 'thread_info',
'version', 'version_info', 'warnoptions']

*Note:*
OSX is a Unix-like, so if LibreOffice is started from the Terminal the print
function will work and the result is shown in the Terminal.

However, if I start the bundled python on the Terminal the *print(dir(sys))*
will show that the *argv*  is available.
See the following two below!

*QUESTION:*
Is *argv* inhibited on purpose for  macros in My Macros or is this a bug?
