Grayson's old posting of a few chapters from his book have intrigued me.  I'd like to try some of his examples.  Another reason for posting here is that I was told that Pmw is pretty much dead.  However, another source, Core Python by Chun appears not to think so. When I looked at the home page for Pmw, it looks more up to date that other Python graphics tools. Is see some ways to install it on Linux, but nothing about Win. I suppose it may be very much like that shown for Linux. Go to the folder with Python, and enter something like: python setup.py install. I'm not quite sure how it knows where the install package is, so I must not understand something here.





I haven't updated my Pmw in quite some time.   I still have some apps
that run best using Pmw.
To your question:  Perhaps the instructions should read "go to the
folder that contains Pmw's setup.py and enter:  python setup.py
install"
In that case the installation package is in the current directory, and
the installation will normally go to c:\python25\lib\site-packages
