You may also omit the script path, it is default. And the .py ending of the script may also be omitted. Just call pwb.py xxx followed by any options behind that.

This part of the startup is quite problematic, as the 'config directory' has three different sets of logic 1. pwb.py 2. generate_user_files.py get_base_dir() 3. pywikibot/config2.py _get_base_dir()
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/87893/ tries to copy the logic in config2.py into pwb.py, but really we need one function that is reused in all three cases.

IMO we should promote 'python pwb.py' as the way that people start using pywiki.

I quickly tested this , and it appears to be working correctly when used with 'python pwb.py scripts/xxxx.py'
