Under XP, until yesterday, I typed a.py in a dos box and a.py ran fine; typed a.xls and opened an excel window; typed a.doc and opened a word Document.
Type, all of those fail - if typed in a DOS window. They all work -- if clicked in an explorer window. The registry looks fine (to me, fwtw): assoc from a Dos prompt says: .py=Python.File .pyc=Python.CompiledFile .pyo=Python.CompiledFile .pys=pysFile .pyw=Python.NoConFile and ftype says Python.CompiledFile="C:\Python25\python.exe" "%1" %* Python.File="C:\Python25\python.exe" "%1" %* Python.NoConFile="C:\Python25\pythonw.exe" "%1" %* which all look pretty good to me. Typing \python25\python a.py succeeds, too. I may be the victim of a corporate software overnight push. (And so I have no way to back it out.) Can anyone help me out? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
