      I'm no expert on 'python' but isn't the cmd code more like this:

      path_to_py argument(s)

      Also have you got 'python' set up right in cmd window ?

      ftype Python26.File="C:\Python26\python.exe" "%1" %
      assoc .py=Python26.File*

      AND then run it...

      IO.popen('"'+PYTHON_PATH+"\\draw_pattern.py+'" "'+base_dir+"\\"+proposal+'"')
      OR
      **system**('"'+PYTHON_PATH+"\\draw_pattern.py+'" "'+base_dir+"\\"+proposal+'"')

      OR perhaps the .py part can't be inside "" ?

      Read this about file associations... http://eli.thegreenplace.net/2010/12/14/problem-passing-arguments-to-python-scripts-on-windows/

          My typo !
          2 missing characters...
          Try:

          IO.popen('"'+PYTHON_PATH+"\\%(#0000FF)["+]draw_pattern.py+'" "'+base_dir+"\\"+proposal+'"')

          If you view your code in Notepad++ with suitable RB syntax coloring it's clearly wrong...

              I misunderstood, there is no 'draw_pattern' variable !

                          I assume the .py and .pattern files exist ?
                          Try this instead - there was a missing \ before ' proposal':
                          d = system('"'+PYTHON_PATH+'\draw_pattern.py" "'+base_dir%(#0000FF)[+"\\"]+proposal+'"')
                          If you paste this into a Windows cmd window [including the "s] does it work ?
                          "C:\Python27\draw_pattern.py" "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents%(#0000FF)[\]**Untitled**.pattern" - substitute the **Untitled** with another name if appropriate...

                              So it's working, sort of... πŸ˜•
                              d is set to the result of the system call...
                              Then if fails at:
                              while d.gets != nil puts d.gets end
                              Because ' d' is ' false' !
                              Why no add a puts d just after the system call to see what you are getting...
                              I suspect it'll NOT be complex data - just success/failure true/false ??

                              Also in the screen-cast the .py extension was not recognized as being associated with Python !
                              Go back a few posts to see my advice and the links etc, on ensuring this is set up correctly...

                              Also in the screen-cast the file was named Untitled.pattern**abc** ?
                              Why the extra characters ?

                              When you run the .py what do you expect ?
                              If it's 'data' then I suggest you get the .py to write it into to a [temporary] file then use IO.read on it in Ruby to get that data...
                              You might need to add a sleep and test for the existence of that file before using IO, as once you launch the Python process it will run separately from the Ruby side...

                                on mac if you drag a file to the 'cmd promt ' [i.e. Terminal.app], you get the correctly escaped full path...

                                you can then either harcode that path for a test or change the system call to puts to see if they match...

                                does that work on a PC?

                                  I wrote it in SU in that plugin window. I know, it makes no sense, I've changed the extension. But when I kept the same name and extension the result was the same.
