[Pyx-user] Problems on Windows

[Gary P. <pa...@in...>]

I've got PyX built and installed (I think) with the default options in
setup.cfg

 I can run most of the files in the examples directory.  But connect.py
fails:
---------------------------
C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages\pyx\examples>python connect.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "connect.py", line 7, in ?
    A = c.text(0,0, r"\bf A", text.halign.center, text.vshift.char(0.5))
AttributeError: class vshift has no attribute 'char'
-------------------------

 I can run *none* of the files in examples/graphs.  They all fail trying to
deal with TeX fonts, for example
--------------------------
C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages\pyx\examples\graphs>python lissajous.py

 Error: module writet1 (file
C:/tex/texmf/fonts/type1/bluesky/cm/cmsy10.pfb):
unexpected end of file
 ==> Fatal error occurred, the output PDF file is not finished!
--------------------------

 I'm using the latest MikTeX and python 2.3.3

 cmsy10.pfb exists at the location indicated

 any help?
