some more test see here:

Python Launcher for Windows is a interesting concept for switching between
python versions or for pointing to a specific python interpreter.

shebang + py.ini seems to work (see tests in the ticket).

IIUC, by this concept a WinGrass-python script would have to be invoked by
py.exe (Python Launcher for Windows)?

- could this be integrated in WinGrass?
- would this help to call a python-script within a python-script?
- would this help to type only r.xxxx in the WinGrass7-windows-console
without the .py-extension to start a grass-python-script?
- would this help for http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/ticket/2015?
