So edit the Target field of the shortcut to say:
E:\Python26\pythonw.exe E:\Programs\Ulipad37\ulipad.pyw
No, I'd already tried that. Doesn't work. Nothing happens.
OK, You could try changing pythonw.exe tyo python.exe to
bring up a console and watch for errors there....
Or just try typing the command into a console session till
you get one that works!
In other words explicitly specify both the interpreter and the file
rather than
relying on Windows file associations.
And if that fails to work, the lasst resort is to write a batch file
that calls
the right file with the rigt interpreter and then create a shortcut to
that!
Any chance you could write that batch file for me?
Look at the one used for IDLE in standard python - idle.bat.
Just copy and edit it as suggested by someone earlier.
Finally, never having used ulipad, is it the interpreter called by the
editor
that you are trying to change? Or the interpretor that runs the editor?
When you say "nothing happens" do you mean the editor doesn't start?
Or just that it still uses the wrong version of Python?
If it's the interpreter used by the editor to run programs that may be
defined in ulipad's config details somewhere - either an ini file or
in the registry. In which case find it and edit it manually.
Or it could be by ulipad reading it from the environment - in which
case there won't be much you can do!
