[Pythonmac-SIG] an OS X problem

[Leighton Pritchard]

Hi Robin,

Select the (or a) file ending in .py. Either use <Apple-I>, or right-click 
(or <Ctrl-left click>) and select Get Info, or select File->Get Info from 
the menu bar, to bring up the Get Info window for that file. Click on the 
wee triangle by Open with: and then select a text editor for that file. 
Then click on the Change All button.

Hopefully that should work, but the usual disclaimers apply ;)
