| Can any Windows user give a working example of adding a "command verb"
| to os.startfile()?
I'm afraid the core Python version of this
command has only grown the command verb
since 2.5a1.
Python 2.4.3 (#69, Mar 29 2006, 17:35:34) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.startfile ("c:/temp.txt", "print")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: startfile() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)
>>>
>>>
But
Python 2.5a1 (r25a1:43589, Apr 5 2006, 10:36:43) [MSC v.1310 32 bit
(Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import os
>>> os.startfile ("c:/temp.txt", "print")
>>>
You can, however, use the pywin32 extensions in any version.
