I tried that.  It works! I just to make a link to have /usr/bin/env point to
something
(Cygwin was probably not in the standard location)

I had in fact misspelled .ph instead of .py....  With this i can remove the
extenion
in NT, but not Cygwin.  Perhaps NutCracker would handle this better?
(I remember before i often needed the .bat-extension in Cygwin, but not
NutCracker)

It also works, though both this and the "#"-method breaks when I try to run
scripts on my D-drive.
Cygwin will give Python a path starting with //D, which it can't find... (My
current drve is then the
C-drive, and Python.exe is also on the C-drive.

Anybody got a way around that?
