Hi Folks,

I just downloaded precompiled Python for Windows, and it runs. Now I
have got the command line coding. However, I can't run my python
scripts. My python script, foo.py, is located in C:\\....\pydir, and I
have set the python interpreter on the directory. When I run
os.listdir(), I found my script of foo.py is right in the pydir. But,
when I tried to run command-line python foo.py, to compile it, I got
"Syntax error: invalid syntax". I guess the interpreter did not find
my script foo.py. In the past, I worked python on unix/linux, and I
knew how set the path, and I ran my python scripts smoothly. I wonder
anybody can help me to configure the python interpreter? Thanks!

Syntax error is not give if interpreter can't find a script. You should post
full tracebacks on this newsgroup so we can help. It is more likely that you
actually have a syntax error in foo.py.

Hi Larry,

Thanks for help. I retried to run the script. My script is as simple
as:
import os

dir=os.getcwd()

print "cwd is",dir

The results are:

1) If I edit it with a text editor, and try to compile at Python
shell, the error message is: SyntaxError: invalid syntax
2) If I run the module by pressing F5, it ran, and printed out the
directory name

Can you figure it out? Thanks!
