As far as I know, it can't be done.
If I was REALLY desperate I might try (tested)
import os
os.rename('myfile.myext', 'myfile.py')
import myfile
os.rename('myfile.py', 'myfile.myext')
# with appropriate modifications if myfile is not in the current directory
but this is a horrible solution, subject to race conditions, file
permission errors, wrong state after a crash, and probably other problems.
It could be cleaned up a bit with try ... except, but is still not to be
recommended.
Can you just create a copy of your file with a .py extension?
Best wishes

I have a file with python code but the name doesn't end with the '.py'

What is the easiest way to import this code as a module without
changing its name?
