Hi Lee,
It looks like you've got it pretty well figured out, but the one thing
that I'd add is the question of whether there is any need to put these
in a special directory.
I put all my utilities in /usr/local/bin, which should be on your path
for all sorts of reasons anyway.
I also tend to remove the ".py" from the end of a script that I'm using
in this way. I just find it cleaner to type:
ConvertFile AtoB.txt
The shell will look at the #! line to figure out what to do, so the .py
isn't required.
By the way, make sure to practice using the <tab> key for command and
filename completion at the command prompt...it'll save you a lot of typing.
Also there's a little utility: "Open Terminal Here" on the net somewhere
that lets you put a button in the finder that will open a terminal
window, and cd it to the current folder in the finder--very handy.
-Chris
