Hi,

I've installed the latest SPE via SVN, along with upgrading to python2.5 at 
the same time. Of course, I forgot to uninstall SPE beforehand like a fool, 
and consequently have got some problems.

1. shell extension not working now, 'Edit with SPE' in the right-click just 
throws up an 'Open With .. ' menu, with python.exe hilighted.

2. Can't run some scripts from within SPE. Some work when I press 'F9', but 
others do nothing except print 'script terminated' in the output window. The 
same scripts worked before in the last SPE i had. The only way I can get 
these to run is through pressing 'SHIFT-F9' to run in a terminal window, 
which obviously means no nice traceback in the output window.

I've removed the _spe folder from my python 2.4 installation, downloaded the 
SVN version to python25/lib/site-packages/. I still have python2.4 
installed, but 2.5 is now the default.

any help greatly appreciated cos I really like SPE!
