--- NEW FILE: README.txt ---
This is the readme for the Python for Win32 (pywin32) extensions source code.
'setup_win32all.py' (soon to be renamed to the standard 'setup.py') is
a standard distutils build script. You probably want to:
% setup_win32all.py install
or
% setup_win32all.py --help
As for Python itself, these extensions require MSVC7 for Python 2.4 and
later, otherwise MSVC6. Some extensions require a recent "Platform SDK"
from Microsoft, and in general, the latest service packs should be
installed, but run 'setup_win32all.py' without any arguments to see
specific information about dependencies. A vanilla MSVC installation should
be able to build most extensions and list any extensions that could not be
built due to missing libraries - if the build actually fails with your
configuration, please log a bug via http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32.
