I think the command line stuff may be an NT only trick (presumably also 
Win2K but I haven't checked). Win9X is pretty broken in this respect.
On NT, if you also remember to modify the PATHEXT environment variable to 
include .py, then you don't need to include the extension when running a 
script.
