Re: Windows registry, Python, and LilyPond

[Frederick Bartlett]

Oh, sorry! 2.16.2

I have since found that I can run python scripts from the command line by typing, say,

  python myscript.py

While just typing

  myscript

produces an error, even though the Windows file association has been set to c:\Python27\python.exe.

This seems, if anything, weirder than my last message. It's clearly a Windows problem ... I'm just hoping a LilyPonder will be able to explain the function of the LilyPond python registry key.

Thanks again!

Subject: Windows registry, Python, and LilyPond

All,

I just installed LilyPond on a new laptop (same OS -- Windows 7 -- as before), but this time the registry entry HKCR\Python\shell\open\command\(Default), which is set to C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin\python.exe ...., interferes with my path to my Python installation in C:\Python27.

There seem to have been problems regarding the registry in the past, but not exactly like the one I've encountered ... does anyone have handy info on how to convince Windows to let LilyPond run its own python while everything else runs my python?

Thanks!

Fred
