so you can add your own custom dialog page (including any properties you
like) to the explorer dialog.
I was just mystified about the utility of these Summary properties vs.
versioninfo resources set with py2exe...
They are per-file settings, but, if I filled them in for a .py file, they
would persist only on this machine, but not if the file is copied to
another Windows box, and are unavailable on the Samba server.
Extra built-in info would be nice, but not worth more effort, to me at
least.
Thanks,
Ray

Summary tab?


The Summary tab of of a file's properties has Title, Subject,

Author, etc.

Could those be filled in via py2exe or ? 

I tried them as attributes of Target; no error, but no result.
