I'm new to python, running it under cygwin. This must be easy but I
haven't figured it out. I'm trying to run a script by typing:
python test.py
where test.py is in a directory I've added to PYTHONPATH, but test.py
is not found. Perhaps PYTHONPATH only applies to modules imported
within a script. I didn't notice an option to python to search the
standard path, like Perl -S.
How is this done?

What happens if you just type:
test.py or test
and hit Enter?

test gives the error: command not found.
test.py gives the error: no such file.

The PYTHONPATH is only used to augment sys.path, which in turn is only
used for locating modules to import.
If you want to locate scripts then just put them on your PATH, and make
sure they are +x with a shebang line (#!/usr/bin/env python is the
commonest) at the head.

This works for me under cygwin.
Start the script with the line
#! /usr/bin/python
Place the script in a directory shown by the command
echo $PATH
Invoke the script using its name, i.e.
test.py

I'd like to modify the python search path depending on the source
directory of the script being started. The reason is: I use a version
control system, and the python scripts and modules are migrated
through several stages before they are used in production. A python
script running in a development environment should use different
modules - possibly in other directories then the script source
directory - than the same script running in a...

A year or two back I needed a search script to scan thru HTML files
on a client site. Usual sorta thing. A quick search turned up a
neat script that provided great search results. It was fast,
returned the hyperlinked page title, filename, and the body txt (30
preceding and following words) in context with the search word
highlighted. Excellent.!

I think I don't understand how the module search path works...
Let's say I have a folders called 'test'. Underneath it, I create two
more folders called 'foo' and 'bar'.
In 'foo', I create an empty '__init__.py' file, indicating that this
folder is a package 'foo'. I then create a simple python script
'foo.py' consisting of the following code:

I have a python script (part of a django application, if it makes any

Why not just add a custom path file (*.pth)? EasyInstall, wx, PyWin32

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
