#1 pwm + w2k

[Anonymous]

hello and thanks much,
as a newbie to python, i am stumped with a simple
issue.
i am having some kind of path issue.
i followed the instructions on page
http://pmw.sourceforge.net/doc/starting.html
concerning windows2000.
i am an idiot so perhaps you could be more specific.
after i expand Pmw.0.8.5.tar.gz i get DO NOT get a dir
called pwm but i do get
C:\Downloads\python\Pmw.0.8.5.tar.
two subdirs down i do have a dir called Pmw.
my python is at c:\python20\ please perhaps you could state what files to where or
some kind of detailed help.

thanks so much,
dave

Dave,

I don't have access to any Microsoft operating systems
so I can't give you very detailed answers. You say you
have a tar file? If so, you need to untar it. Do you
have a program called something like "tar". If so, you
will need to run "tar -xf C:\Downloads\python\Pmw.0.8.5.tar"
You should do this in a directory that is on your python
path. One way to find your python path is to start python
and run:
import sys
print sys.path

Hope this helps.

Greg
