I think you're misunderstanding what I was after. python.exe is already in my PATH. What I was trying to do was execute a python script without having to type the word "python" explicitly. For that, you need the "set" command that I listed in a previous post. Anyway, I want to be able to put my scripts in "oddball" places, as they form part of separate projects rather than a generally-runnable script. It doesn't matter to me that Windows cannot find the script itself - because I just go to the directory where's it's at. The upshot is that my original problem has now been solved, and that discussing the matter further will only likely confuse the issue. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
