Hi, if you're on the python 2.x side, I think that reload() might do the job.
https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/functions.html?highlight =reload#reload
There are some ways of doing this in 3.x using the "imp" module. No experience with that.
By the way, that's the python way. No idea if this works on the idl-python bridge! [probably not :-/]

Cheers,
Helder
