Re: [vmtk-users] Missing INSTALL target in winx64 and python problems

[Luca A. <luc...@gm...>]

Hi Brian,
 I got sidetracked on this one, but I finally committed your changes to the repository.
Now we generate a vmtk_startup.bat file on Windows and a vmtk_env.sh file on 
Unix (Mac and Linux). On Windows one can just double-click the file, while 
on Unix one goes
source vmtk_env.sh
or 
. vmtk_env.sh
and the scripts are available at the command line.

Thanks a lot for the contributions, it would be great if you could double check 
that everything works correctly on Windows.

Luca

PS: I'm launching pypepad from the .bat file now, while I saw you were starting
idle. Maybe it would be good to generate two files, one for pypepad and one for idle?
