... still searching... *grin*


FAQTS has a little something about this:

    http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/4153/fid/245

where they mention that, on NT or Win2k, the PATHEXT environmental
variable controls if Windows thinks some file is executable or not, so
perhaps this might have something to do with things.

    http://www.reportlab.com/ftp/talks/PythonWindowsTutorial.doc

is another Python page that mentions setting PATHEXT to make Windows think
of '.py' files as ".exe"'s.


Good night!
