From command Prompt, i type in a script, "tryme.py".
This, instead, brings up PythonWin editor and Interactive Window.
Path variable is "C:\Python24". (I need Python 2.4 installed, not 2.5)
How do I make it so that the script runs?

======================================
I get tired of Microsoft jerking me around too. Rather than spend hours
trying to undo somebody's reorganizing my system preferences I just
ignore them completely.
py tryme is how I do it.
py.bat is a file placed in a directory listed in PATH in autoexec.bat.
Edit autoexec.bat to include directory you put it in and reboot system
or it won't find it. something like: PATH=.;c:\py-stuff;[anything
already listed] Don't forget the semicolons.
The . (period) up front means look here first. here being where ever you
are when you issued the command. (The pRESENT wORKING dIRECTORY :-) The
c:\py-stuff (fix to suit yourself and make sure it exists) is where you
can put your efforts to be called at your leisure. Your .py files you
write and use. Even the py.bat can go there.
(Short note: Microsoft usually does look in pwd first. But good form
dictates being specific.)
contents of py.bat:
========================
rem name: py.bat
@echo off
c:\Python24\python %f.py make it fit your path
rem end of file
========================
This way - you get what you expect, when you expect it, & nothing else.
Yeah - dumb, but it works! I have one similar for each of my compilers.
They contain the whole command line switches stuff as well as things
like remove old stuff before trying to over write with new since MS can
be temperamental about that.
Easiest way in the world to give it the finger and make it behave.
