I'm pretty sure you can also make .py files executable by mucking around in the Windows registry, if you don't have PowerShell--although I can't recommend that, of course. You should be able to find tutorials for that or similar, none of which will recommend actually doing it. You have to make 2 registry entries, which will be similar to the preexisting ones for .exe files. (command file extension and association). Backup your registry and think about how much you value your Windows installation. If you open regedit.exe, you can search for EXE, and you will eventually find both entries that need to be replicated, albeit among many unrelated entries. However, I haven't used Windows OSes since 2009, and no one can make me go back. I.e. if you do this, you're on your own. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
