I just started using Python and I LOVE it! I've never seen Python before in my life, and with the PeachPit Press Python Visual Quick Start book, I got a simple HTML Automatic Table generator up and running in a total of about 4 hours! The problem is I can NOT install the Win extensions! My Python is installed in: "F:\Applications\Python" and the Win extension installer (win32all-153.exe) just can't find it. I click the "Continue anyway" button on the popup, but it just jumps back to the same popup and will NOT continue no matter what I do. How can I get the extensions installed on my Non-Standard Python installation? Thank you for your gracious and patient assistance with this issue.

Anyway, I found another site with a message from a Python user with my exact problem ... There ought to be a big flaming warning to NOT upload the latest version of wxPython ... it is for the BETA Python 2.3! There is virtually no distinction between the boxes to download the win32 for Python 2.2.3 and 2.3, and it is totally trivial to get confused and download the wrong one, which I did! (And I'm obviously not the only one!) I tried to get back to this message thread, but SourceForge is not very friendly IM-notso-HO. I did get wxPython "working" so to speak. I've tried to run all 8 of the sample programs ... at least a couple of them don't run at all or else crash the system. At least a couple of others run, but if I play "musical windows" (make different resident windows active) with WinExplorer or whatever, the system hangs. All I wanted was a couple of quick and easy interface popups, but that is not what wx is. If you want, I'll give you more quantitative data on this ... send a direct e-mail to my_...@NO... ... remove the cap letters. I do LOVE Python and am using it for text file filtering and HTML table generation (120 or so linked entries). I just wish that I had a couple of simple, reliable add-on popups for user interface to go with vanilla Python. Before I would use it heavily, though, I would need to be able to generate execuatbles. This has been a terribly negative letter, but I want to thank you most sincerely for your efforts and your tremendous achievements. I hope you have enjoyed yourself and I look forward to hearing from you! Blessings in abundance, all the best, and ENJOY!
