I admit I have little clue how script execution works on windows nowadays.
Maybe adding pythonic shebang on the first line is enough for running
or does it need executable flags (if they exist at all) or you need
to have .bat/.exe? Or you need to launch python? 
Once in python how do you make find/search equivalents? Probably doable
but not straightforward, at least for me.

I am not entirely against pythonic solution, but I think at this stage
it's really for win users to step up. I can make the linux part working
if they come up with a solution.
