Initial Comment:
PythonWin 2.4.2 (#67, Oct 30 2005, 16:11:18) [MSC v.
1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32.

>>> print 'File "<xxx>", line 1324' 

System will respond with "Cannot open this file"

The cause is in winout.HandleSpecialLine.

The input line matches the input line, so the 
interactive shell thinks is is a traceback line and 
tries to jump to the file <xxx>.

Similarly,

>>> s = 'File' + ' "<xxx>", line 1324'
>>> s
'File "<xxx>", line 1324'
>>> 1+1

gives the same error since HandleSpecialLine also
tries the preceeding line.

The solution is to add

		if line.startswith('>>>') or line.
startswith('...'):
			return 0

near the beginning of HandleSpecialLine.
