.pyc files...

[Eddie Parker]

<chuckles> No, I'm not, not always.

Doesn't preclude Cygwin, or http://unxtools.sourceforge.net, however... Some
days I wish Windows was more like Linux.. Some days I wish Linux was more
like Windows.. Ah well, that's the way she goes. :)

Thanks for everyone's help on this. ;) Looks like there might be forward
movement on this, if not just right yet.. Wish I had time to pick up the
patch myself! :)

Yeah, but then you're bash-specific.  Or at least that rules sh, csh and
tcsh.

My weapon of choice would be
  find . -name '*.pyc' | xargs rm
but on the other hand .pyc files don't bother me much ...
