Does HappyDoc work under MS Windows ?

[j vickroy]

I tried to use release 2.0 with Python 2.1 and this is the result:

D:\py_addons\generic>c:python21\scripts\happydocwin.py ftp.py

I've just checked in changes that fix this problem.  You can grab the latest version from CVS now, if you  want.  I'm going to try to put together a formal release today.

Thank you Doug.  I'll be looking for the release since I just started using sourceforge.net.

Thank you Doug; issue resolved.  HappyDoc is happily producing reams of documentation :-)
