Is there an os module call to request that Windows handle a specific file
using the default handler? For example, if I pass it a .txt file it opens
notepad but if I pass a .wav file it opens Windows Media Player.
Any ideas?

Using wxPython, is there any way to get the icon associated with a file? I
want to be able to display the icon, then when it's double clicked, it
executes the file (using os.startfile )

I would like to use something like .x rather than .aspx for my asp.net
projects. One reason is, I'd rather everyone not know what
language/platform our projects are written in. (I like security AND
obscurity on our site.) Right now it is trivial to use Google to find
all pages using asp.net, with a google search for .aspx files. If an
exploit comes out for .net stuff, Google becomes a hacker's tool to
locate pages to exploit quite easily....

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
