Go to Preferences
| File Types
and make sure .py
extension is mapped to Python Files, also check that this specific file is not mapped to Text Files.

Oh I see it is under Intellij | Preferences | File Types. I am new to using IJ on OS X and the menu structure is different here. – WestCoastProjects Aug 15 '13 at 18:46

Now I see it - yes the .py were mapped to text. So this is the correct answer. – WestCoastProjects Aug 15 '13 at 18:47
