hello,
I just upgraded from Python 2.5 to 2.6.
Most of the things work,
but I'm struggling with one issue,
when I start Python in a command window,
it still uses Python 2.5.
Is there a way to get Python 2.6 as my default Python environment ?
thanks,

It's a matter of replacing C:\Python25 with C:\Python26 in your PATH
environment variable, which is what the Windows command processor uses
to fined executable programs.
Thanks Steve,
that works exactly as you say.
Additionally if you're using ActivePython, you do not even have to
fiddle with PATH because:
1) C:\PythonXY (and %APPDATA%\Python\Scripts) is automatically added to
%PATH%.
2) "python.exe" is also available as "python26.exe", so you can simply
type "python26" in the console to get Python 2.6 (if another version of
ActivePython/Python is already installed).
