I've installed Python 2.5, and the installer associates *.py files with
the Python interpreter. So if you double-click on a *.py file, or type
its name in a command window, the script runs via the Python
interpreter. I haven't tried it, but I thought that would mean I could
write a "pre-revprop-change.py" hook script and it could run directly.
Has anyone done this?
