title: ImportError in IDLE
body: <p>I consider myself an intermediate user in python, and this one is a new one.  Testing code in IDLE (Python 3.2.3) on Linux.  Here is the entire script:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Python 3.2.3 (default, Apr 10 2013, 05:29:11) 
  [GCC 4.6.3] on linux2
  Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.

  &gt;&gt;&gt; from os import listdir, getcwd, chdir
  &gt;&gt;&gt; chdir('Documents/matrix')
  &gt;&gt;&gt; getcwd()
  '/home/bradfordgp/Documents/matrix'
  &gt;&gt;&gt; listdir('.')
  ['__init__.py', 'vec.zip', 'hw1.pdf', 'politics_lab.pdf', 'submit_hw1.py', 'submit_politics_lab.py', 'test_vec.py', 'Week1', 'Week0', 'python_lab.py~', 'Week2', 'vec.pdf', '__pycache__', 'hw1.zip', 'politics_lab.zip', 'voting_record_dump109.txt', 'my_stories.txt~', 'hw1.py', 'politics_lab.py', 'submit_vec.py', 'vec.py']
  &gt;&gt;&gt; from vec import Vec
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "&lt;pyshell#4&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
      from vec import Vec
  ImportError: No module named vec
  &gt;&gt;&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I've navigated to the correct directory, and I'm importing from the same directory, and vec.py exists.  Why is in not locating a file in the local directory?  Running this script from a terminal window command line works correctly.</p>
  
  <p>Suggestions?</p>
