once you have some start in place, run it using: /c/downloads/python/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py [options] <application root directory> /c/downloads/python/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py .

#for a different port: /c/downloads/python/google_appengine/dev_appserver.py --port 8081 application/

I've had to do this before...

you'll want to rename the appropriate files / directories , and then replace all the module name instances in your project

ie: if your project is named ASDFGHJK , then you'll need to rename: /ASDFGHJK /ASDFGHJK/asdfhjk /ASDFGHJK/asdfhjk.egg-info

then do a s/ASDFGHJK/? on the files

there are lots of

import ASDFGHJK from ASDFGHJK import

if you're using a mac, TextWrangler has a great find/replace function that works on directories

if you're using subversion for version control, i generaly like to do it like this: 1- rename files 2- commit 3- find/replace text 4- commit

if you're using git or mercurial, i think you can do the commits in one step. svn needs them in two though.
