Interesting. I didn't think it would be that easy. But I don't think I fully understand what exemaker does. Another question I had was since I won't be using a Windows registry, would I have to put the #! line on my scripts like in Linux? Is this what exemaker takes care of? Is it possible to *not* use exemaker, but still run scripts from the stick (such as with using the #! line?). Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
