Is it possible to have Spyder run code or analyze a file that doesn't have a .py extension? The file has a shebang as the first line to name the python to be used.
I can't find a setting that allows this or a reference to it in the documentation.

Yes, you can. I just tried it. In the file dialog for Spyder, there's a drop-down menu that defaults to "Supported files (*.py, *R, *.jl *...)", and if you click on it, you should see a menu item for "All files". If you pick that menu item, you should then be able to select a file without an extension for opening in Spyder.
