Comment:
So there seems to be some disagreement as to whether this is necessary or
not.
What is the standard behaviour if you install Python using python.org's
installer on a recent version of Windows (say vista and/or the version
before that)? I'm not interested in how it is possible to customise
things. What happens in the absolutely standard case? If somebody has to
read those commands and follow them word for word, then they aren't going
to be able to puzzle out the subtleties of what used to happen versus now.
So we have to be very clear. If things changed at some point in Windows
and we know when, we can note that, too.
At the moment, I'm not comfortable making this change because it may or
may not make things worse. So can somebody with access to Windows please
confirm what the normal behaviour would be. Do you need to type "python"
or does it make things worse?
