+   This can be used to turn a Python script into a Windows batch file.
+   Similarly to adding a shebang line and setting the executable bit on Unix,
+   the extension of the Python script can be changed to ``.bat`` and the
+   following line can be added at the start of the script:
+
+   .. code-block:: batch
+
+      @py -x "%~f0" %* & exit /b
+
+   Or, to specify the path to the Python interpreter explicitly:
+
+   .. code-block:: batch
+
+      @"C:\Path\to\python.exe" -x "%~f0" %* & exit /b
+
+   Unlike a shebang line which is a Python comment, this line is not valid
+   Python syntax, and the :option:`-x` option is needed to skip it.
