I've inherited (in a manner of speaking) a dev project that is done in
python2.6... I pulled the latest dev branch and have it opened as a
project in Eclipse, however, none of the python files end in .py, so
PyDev only sees them as text files.  And because of that, I can't run
them in Eclipse to try my changes, debug, etc.

So, is there a way to make them show up as python code without the .py
extension?  Because of this, I also don't get any of the fancy
indenting and highlighting that I'd normally get...

You probably need to do that one level higher, i.e. in Eclipse (hint: Preferences>General>Editors>File Associations <don't forget to also add a 'Associated editors' for your new defined file type>).

I do have a couple of remarks though.

It sounds to me like you inherited something of more or less a 'shipped' product. Perhaps it would be wise to invest some time to restructure the project so that it works nicely with all the tools you have (unit testing, coverage, refactoring, etc.) and build a script that from your source builds the actually release (resembling that what you have inherited).

This question would probably have been more suitable in http://sourceforge.net/projects/pydev/forums/forum/293649 (that is the PyDev forum), and it is likely that they would have sent you through to http://www.eclipse.org/forums/ .
