I'm a novice with programming and I have just started to learn Python. I found about DrPython and downloaded the zip and unzipped to c:\drpython-161
I'm on Windows XP and already have installed Python25(under C:\python25) and Wxpython (C:\Python25\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.7.2-msw-unicode\wxPython). When I double click on drpython.pyw A small Window opens giving me the choice of Beginner and Advanced.
However, when I click on either one of them nothing happens. I then opened the drpython.pyw using IDLE and ran the code in the file and I get the following error messages:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\drpython-161\drpython.pyw", line 36, in <module>

return _core_.Window_Move(*args, **kwargs)
TypeError: Expected a 2-tuple of integers or a wxPoint object.
What am I doing wrong? Is it that the versions of Python or WxPython are not compatible with DrPython?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
If you haven't tried it yet, you might want to un-install the version161 version. The download and install the latest version of DrPython v163. Here's the link:

Hello zachsree,
I write instead of Dan (Project leader).
You do nothing wrong, you are not the first one, who reports this.
I try to contact Dan. Maybe he could correct that error, but I cannot
promise.

I am for myself on Win XP, wxPy 2.6 (ansi) and Python 2.4.
Robin Dunn changed something in wxPy 2.7 and it isn't compatible anymore.
Hi Zachsree:

I installed Dr. Python on Windows XP and along with Python 25 and wxPython 2.8.0.1 Seems to be working fine.
Cheers
Hello Roberto,
yes wxPython 2.6 and 2.8 is a kind of incompatible.
