RE: [Jython-dev] Installer test

[Adam B. <ada...@gb...>]

Worked fine for NT 4 SP6 and Sun SDK 2 for java -version 
Classic VM (build JDK-1.2.2-001, native threads, symcjit)

even though I probably shouldn't be using JIT.

My testing was pretty minor (1+2=3, for i in x : print i, javac b.py where
b.py is fairly trivial) but that would still seem to confirm the installer
works fine.  The only problem was it couldn't find README.txt to display at
the end of the install.

try path E:\tempinstall\jp\
can not find readme text README.txt
