I think the line should become: #!/usr/bin/env python2.3 This will then be modified on installation by distutils to point to the Python interpreter which was involved in the installation. I think this is the right thing for both developers working from CVS and site developers and administrators working with installed versions. -Fred -- Fred L.

I guess '#! /usr/bin/env python' is easier to keep up to date ... -1. We should specify the required minimum version everywhere. I'm fine with that. The 'env' hack is evil because it pretends to be flexible, while still leaving you vulnerable to strangeness. Is there a better alternative than the 'env hack'? (I had to google to find out what you mean by 'env hack' and found http://www.faqts.com/knowledge_base/view.phtml/aid/1406, but nothing about better solutions.) BTW, the space after the '!' should go, too; it is not guaranteed to be honored by all shells. Good to know. So you propose to replace *all* the #! lines by #!/usr/bin/env python2.3 Right?

This checkin message caused me to notice 'test.py' for the first time. Can you point me to any discussion/docs on it? When did/will it replace testrunner? Shouldn't the python2.2 in the #! line be python2.3? There is minimal documentation in the test.py docstring. All the command line arguments are described. It's basic strategy for finding tests isn't documented, but I don't think it's too different from testrunner.py. test.py obsoleted testrunner.py as of Zope 2.7. test.py was being used by ZODB3 and Zope3 for a while before it was added to Zope 2.7. I'm not sure which #! line you mean, but I think you're right to say it should be python 2.3. All the software on the head requires python 2.3. Sorry for the flood of questions, but this and the recent doctest-style tests being checked in have made me wonder if I've been missing a significant shift in testing tech. test.py has all sorts of bells and whistle for running tests. It's a lot more flexible than testrunner.py.
