This is what is done with my change, at the moment (I used __dict__ because I 
thought it was the best solution - suggestions welcome in case as I'm not that 
experienced). Earlier, the main script name was forced to be called "main" or 
it would cause errors.

You use the one that's called by CreateApplet, which needs to be put in the 
main script file:

class FooApplet(plasmascript.Applet):
    ...

def CreateApplet(parent):
    return FooApplet(parent)

and the relevant bit is then called in the initialization:

self.pyapplet = self.module.__dict__[basename].CreateApplet(None)

so CreateApplet should *always* return the right applet and must be in the 
main script file.
