When you run a xxx.py on Windows, it locates the python.exe using the
registry entries set up by assoc and ftype. But when you run "python" it
looks for python.exe (or python.bat, or ...) on the PATH. So there's not
necessarily any conection between your tests. You're probably running two
different versions.
Easiest way to know which python is being used is to run it same way:
e:\python31\temp> python 2to3.py -w mycalc.py
Or the way I do it, have python31.bat and python26.bat, which launch the
exact pythons that I want.
Thanks, Dave. I'm not familiar with .bat files. Could you give me a
look at one of them?
As an alternative, I've created python26.exe, python31.exe etc. in
my c:\tools directory (which is on my PATH wherever I am) and which
are hardlinks to their corresponding c:\python26\python.exe etc.
Same as the batch file, really, only without a batch file!
