Hey, that's pretty cool looking... But I have to wonder, why don't you
just type "filename.py"? The associations are set up correctly by
default if I remember correctly, so if you have python installed on the
machine, you don't need the trick. (Say, does that work on Win95/98 as
well? There it could be very handy for some stuff we're doing at
work...)

This got me started thinking about the "Hello Polyglot" program I saw a
while ago, and I wondered just what that line would do if interpreted as
a Perl program (because of the @)... The answer is:
syntax error at temp2 line 1, near "@python -x "
Warning: Use of "-x" without parens is ambiguous at temp2 line 1.
Bareword found where operator expected at temp2 line 1, near "%~f0"
(Missing operator before f0?)
Execution of temp2 aborted due to compilation errors.

I think you'ld have to hack the source, since the traceback line numbers
are set in there, no matter what you do.
Later,
Blake.
