Message 161528 - Python tracker (original) (raw)
I found about this enhancement via Python Insider blog post [1] that also asked adding comments to this issue. Here are mine:
Great to see that this is finally done!
Is only Python installation directory added into PATH? Why not also Scripts directory under it as originally requested in this issue? As a developer of a Python based test automation tool, just adding Python into PATH doesn't help us because our tool's launcher scripts still aren't found unless PATH is manually edited.
I would also prefer this to be on by default.
