Yes, Windows ignores shebang lines, they're a UNIX convention. Windows uses
file associations to decide what program to launch scripts with.
The Windows Python installer associates .py files with python.exe - so the

You will still need to know a bit about distutils but you will be better off
following the py2exe user guide and asking questions on the py2exe list
(unless they redirect you back here for anything):

Hello all,
For unittest2 I now have three different distributions. A "version" that
supports Python 2.4 - 2.7, one for Python 2.3 that is developed in a

for Python 3.
The reason I'm not using 2to3 with a single codebase i

uggest the right magic incantation for the setup.py? (Or a
better approach - I really don't want to make my 600 line single module a
