It looks like the extension on your file is .py which is something I am not familiar with. Looks like a python file extension. Are you sure your trying to open the right thing? Your not able to upload your file?

No problem, plenty of help here. The files you will need to be working with will be .dxf and .svg and even at that I find Inkscape struggles with some dxf files but there are work arounds for that also when it happens.
If your having trouble just ask and if you can upload your file that is always helpful as well. Best of luck!

One thing with Inkscape save your work in both DXF and SVG, if you need to do more work the SVG will return as the size you saved it. But DXF is very small, it fine for importing into SheetCam but not a return to Inkscape as the original size.
