import settings from application directory

/home/bewater/django/foo_project/settings.py
/home/bewater/django/foo_project/bar_application/myprogram.p
y

'import settings', read the configuration from settings.py.
So if the
script is run from another directory that project's it
fails.

In my case, I need run program from an application
directory. How could
I 'import settings' in this case?

I tried the next, but nothing:
os.chdir('..'); import settings

Solved! The problem was because I was running 'myprogram.py'
using a
link. So when I was running 'import settings', it was trying
loading it
from the linked directory (where it isn't 'settings.py').
