1.2.4 ``Save as'' versus ``Save as Applet''
            
</H2>

<P>
When you are done writing your Python script you have the option of
saving it as an ``applet'' (by selecting ``Save as applet'' from the
``File'' menu). This has a significant advantage in that you can drop
files or folders onto it, to pass them to the applet the way
command-line users would type them onto the command-line to pass them
as arguments to the script. However, you should make sure to save the
applet as a separate file, do not overwrite the script you are
writing, because you will not be able to edit it again.

<P>
Accessing the items passed to the applet via ``drag-and-drop'' is done
using the standard <tt class="member">sys.argv</tt> mechanism. See the general
documentation for more

<P>
Note that saving a script as an applet will not make it runnable on a
system without a Python installation.

67	applet as a separate file, do not overwrite the script you are
68	writing, because you will not be able to edit it again.

72	using the standard <tt class="member">sys.argv</tt> mechanism. See the general
