[PythonCE] Loading .py files in PythonCE

[David Youngblood]

actually the problem you have involves another
solution. I also had the same problem with it not able
to load scripts if the path had a space in it. so i
modified pcceshell.py so it could accept it.
try this:
1) in pcceshell.py find the function 'def
RunCode(shell):'
2) now scroll down 46 lines or so down till you find
the code 'fname = sys.argv[0]'.
3) replace that line of code with the following:
if sys.argv[0][0]=='\\' and sys.argv[0][-2:] != 'py':
   if sys.argv[1][-2:]== 'py':
      fname = sys.argv[0] + " " + sys.argv[1]
   else:
      fname = sys.argv[0]
else:
   fname = sys.argv[0]
4) thats it!

This is not a perfect solution because it assumes
there is no more than 1 space in the pathname, but it
has worked fine for me.
Now when you click a py script that has a space in the
file name it should load it fine.

    This is the infuriating bug I had which was
causing Tkinter files tofail....

I fixed it myself last night when I suddenly
remembered I'd had it inthe last version......

The path of the file I'm trying to run is passed to
pccedhell *without*enclosing quotes (either a windows
foible or a pcceshell foible)...

*So* - it doesn't understand paths with spaces
in.................

I run my  main script from a special directory...
however my Tk test Iwas storing in 'My Documents'
which is why they failed.....

So the solution below looks like an interesting one
which I'll try....

I had the same problem. I copied the
file'pcceshell.py' from my last version of python and
thenmade the following change to it:1) open it with a
file editor2) find the function 'def
RunCode(shell):'3) about 9 lines down find 'del
sys.argv[0]'4) comment this line out. '#del
sys.argv[0]'5) save this file to your python\lib
folder and try itagainHope this helps.David Y ---
