15 Hmm, it,s {,.exe} which tests two variants:
16
17 python2.x and python2.x.exe
18
19 The first doesn't exist, hence the error. The second is found as python2.6.exe
20
21 What I really want to code is:
22
23 Find python2.? with or without the .exe suffix!
24
25 > Otherwise, just repeat the "?", see the second ls bellow (both work for me)
26 >  $ touch python2.6{,.exe,-config} ; ls python2.?{,.exe} ; ls python2.{?,?.exe} ; ls python2.6*
