Everything depends of course. Personally I would probably have used an external configuration file (I am a fan of YAML) but I can see the attraction of having your "global" variables in a separate module under their own namespace. CountZero A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James
