The installation process installs the help files and the gutenberg.*
files into /usr. The help routine cannot find the help files
because /usr is typically not in the path. I think a better location
might be something like /usr/share/PyGE.

I have a kludge where I prefixed the references to *.htb with
'/usr/' so the help works for me, but should be changed so that
the help and index files go into a good location and the programs
don't have to be edited.

I am using 0.6.1.2.

Thanks for a cool bit of software.

Kindest regards
tim

    I need to have additional information to identify where the
    problem with installation of extra files occurs. Could you
    specify which installer file you used (RPM, deb, tar.gz, etc.),
    and what kind of system you tried to install it on. Thanks.

    I used the standard 'python setup.py install'.

    Attached is a patch against 0.6.1.2

    I submitted an ebuild for PyGE to Gentoo (www.gentoo.org) and it was
    accepted. One of the leads with with Gentoo made the additional
    change of dropping the '.pyw' from the executable names.

    Kindest regards,
