Just typing 'pip' as you do does't work because pip.exe is located in Python\Scripts
directory which in not included on variable %PATH%

Well I think that this is a Win 10 "thing" befcause using previous versions of Windows all I had to do was to type in "pip" to get the pip info. but  now apparently it's "python -m pip". Can someone please "set me straight" about the path I should be using if I have a "pathing" problem?

It should be a list of folder paths. Including a file path doesn't
appear to break it, and, in fact, I'd be surprised if it did; it should
just keep searching, much like it should if the folder were missing.

You're probably right, but my recollection of Windoze is that it was
very easily broken, hence my migration to Linux many moons ago.  I
reckon it wouldn't hurt to try getting rid of the invalid path entry anyway.

I just tested running pip.exe on a VM with Windows 10, build 10074. It
surprised me that it worked, so I checked the source code of Vinay's
[simple launcher][1]. Apparently the simpler launcher merely asserts
that creating the job object succeeds, so it will only fail in a debug
build. (See run_child in launcher.c). Depending on the nature of the
script it could be confusing if there's no job object and the launcher
gets killed. This leaves python.exe and the shell competing for
console input. That said, it shouldn't really matter for a simple
program such as pip.

But the full py.exe launcher used by Python always fails if creating
the job object doesn't succeed. (Oddly, it doesn't fail if *assigning*
the child to the job fails; I guess because Windows 7 lacks support
for job hierarchies, but still, it makes no sense to care about
creating something that you don't care about using.) So for build
10074 of Windows 10, ensure the filetypes for .py and .pyw scripts
(installed as Python.File and Python.NoConFile) run python.exe and
pythonw.exe instead of py.exe and pyw.exe. Otherwise you won't be able
to run scripts directly at the command prompt or by double clicking
them in Explorer.

“Better” as in “getting/reading/downloading the same message *twice*”?

The rule of thumb is: write here, read here.

Please see my sig and reconsider.

[Reply] should send the reply to the list.

Please no, not as a routine.  I intentionally read python-list as a 
newsgroup via gmane.news.org so I can pick messages as I feel like 
without my mailbox being flooded.  Anyone who want to read responses to 
something they send can do so via gmane.  Also, [Reply All] tends to 
collect multiple CC names, and most people don't have the curtesy to 
properly prune it.

The function named “reply” normally means “reply individually to the
author”, and that's how it needs to stay.

The “reply to the list” function is present in many mail clients, and
works fine for this mailing list; Google Mail seems to be a notable
exception that its users should ask to change.

> > Some people email the list, but aren't subscribed to it.

People who fit that description are not participants in the forum, so
excluding them from forum replies is the right thing to do.

Agreed.

If the question was addressed to this forum, then answering the question
should also be addressed to this forum. So: reply to list.

I don't think the simplicity of the question changes the above.

If you're asking a question in a public discussion forum (such as this
one), then to see the ensuing dicussion you need to subscribe.

If you don't want that, then don't have them delivered to your inbox.
You can, for example, filter messages that are part of this forum to a
separate mailbox; or you can subscribe using a non-email method such as
NNTP.

Personally, what I do (which I'm doing with this post) is to use
Gmail's "reply-all" feature, and then manually delete the individual
addresses. Sometimes, half way through writing up a post, I decide to
send it privately rather than to the list, and then I delete the list
rather than the author. (Not usually with this list, though; more
often with Savoynet, where private replies are more common, and
there's no newsgroup equivalence.)

That is testimony in support of the position that Google Mail is a
poorly-designed interface for discussion forums such as mailing lists.

Google Mail, like any other mail client, has full access to all the
technical information (specified in RFC 3696) needed to implement a
correct “reply to list” behaviour.

Users shouldn't need to do anything tediously manual like you describe,
they should be presented with an obvious “reply to the same place”
function, as implemented in many mail clients for over a decade.

That Google Mail continues to fail in this regard is something its users
need to apply pressure to fix, or choose better mail clients until it
improves.

Oh, right.  I was thinking of 'Followup' and that should go to the list, 
and does for me.
