And everytime the same question and the same answer:
You can't look at *.pyc -files.
These *.pyc -files are designed read-only-by-your-computer, and not by humans.

*.pyc-files are compiled *.py files, and you can read only that *.py files!

But there are ways to get an *.py file:
If the *.pyc-file you want to look was created by Activision you only need to Download the SDK - all this nice Python-files are coming with it.

If the *.pyc-file was third-party-scripting, you can try to decompyle it on http://StarTrek.webhop.info (German site, but also usable by other people.)

BTW: Why can't people use the Forum search?
