Hmm. The search order is a red herring, and my bug report's wrong.
I think wingide just doesn't like having two scripts with the same name.

(0. Close every files and wingide)

1. Copy /usr/local/lib/wingide2.0/scripts/editor-extensions.py
in ~/.wingide2.0/scripts

2. Start wingide

2.5 Create a new file

3. Execute upper-case: Exception

Here's the log extract:

wingide - 2005/10/19 18:08:36 - Scripts: Error::Error executing script .user.internal_script_editor_extensions.upper_case
wingide - 2005/10/19 18:08:36 - Runtime failure details:

wingide - 2005/10/19 18:08:36 - Traceback:

wingide - 2005/10/19 18:08:36 -     _transform_selection(editor, string.upper)

(Note that the global script was used; this, whether you select
the first or second 'upper-case').

The exception is on 'string.upper', and indeed string is None.
Putting 'print string.upper' results in an UnboundLocalError
on 'string'; re-importing string makes print fly, but then
_transform_selection is None...

Yep, I understand it may be less usable for you. As an user, I'd
like to know reported bugs, requested features, etc. without having
to search the mailing list
