CLI opens VS Code instead of running

System: Windows 11, Virtual env: python 3.12.7

ran the following command on branch v20 of pygetpapers

git pull
pip install -e .
pygetpapers -h

and then Instead of showing CLI help, it opens pygetpapers.py file in VS Code
showing the below in terminal

(venv) (base) C:\Users\Dell\pygetpapers>pygetpapers --help

Even tried running the command pygetpapers -q lantana -o <somewhere>/lantana1 -x -k 10 --convert_html but it is still getting the issue

Cursor> This is a classic Windows/Python CLI registration issue, and it’s not specific to your code. Here’s what’s happening and how to fix it:

What’s Happening?
When you run pygetpapers in the terminal, instead of running the CLI, it opens the pygetpapers.py file in VS Code.
This means Windows is associating the pygetpapers command (or .py files) with VS Code, not with Python.

Why?
On Windows, the way Python scripts are registered as command-line tools depends on file associations and the presence of the correct "entry points" in your environment.
If .py files are associated with VS Code, double-clicking or running a script by name may open it in VS Code instead of executing it.
If the pygetpapers command is not installed as a proper CLI entry point, Windows may fall back to opening the file.

How to Fix

1. Check Entry Points
   You installed with pip install -e ., which should create a pygetpapers.exe (or similar) in your virtualenv's Scripts directory.

If it exists, running pygetpapers should work.
2. Check File Associations
Open a terminal and run:

If you see VS Code in the output, that's the problem.
To fix:
Re-associate .py files with Python:

(Replace C:\Path\To\python.exe with your actual Python path, e.g., from your venv.)
3. Always Use the CLI Entry Point
In your venv, always run the CLI as:

help
or, if that fails,

help
(or, for older layouts, python -m pygetpapers --help)
4. Reinstall the Editable Package
Sometimes, the entry point is not created correctly. Try:

.
Then check if pygetpapers works.
5. Avoid Double-Clicking .py Files
Never double-click .py files to run a CLI tool—always use the terminal.
Summary for Your Team
The issue is with Windows file associations or missing CLI entry points.
Fix by ensuring .py files are associated with Python, not VS Code.
Make sure you use the CLI entry point (pygetpapers), not the script directly.
If needed, reinstall the package in your venv.
