think there is something that could be added to those docs - the use of PATHEXT and the fact that once the shebang line is in place, a command-prompt could do just "hello.py" rather than needing "py hello.py". Or even just "hello" should work.

Ooops - right. IIRC, "hello.py" will work without anything special in PATHEXT and just "hello" would work with a modified PATHEXT.
