anatoly techtonik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: 1. Associations still do not show Scripts/ among executable files in Run dialog.
2. Association works only for one version of properly installed Python. It won't work if Python is installed for different user, if extensions are not registered or if Python was copied from another machine. 3. Association will call only the latest Python when you may need to maintain several installations for your applications. 90% of Python software is still compiled only for Python 2.5 and when .py association is set for latest 2.6 users still need to have scripts located in 2.5 dist subdir to be executed with version 2.5 4. Some *nix-developed applications create Python Scripts/ without any extension at all Created .bat files guarantee that scripts will be executed with the version of Python they were installed for. In my opinion this options should be turned on by default even if made optional to allow users forget about platform differences. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4015> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
