using chmlib and compiling pychm

[mark pryor]

hello,

I'm trying to build pychm on WinXP.
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=96084&package_id=102897
I type
>python setup.py install_lib

only four error lines show:
------------------------------ snip error log -------------------------------
E:\download\pychm-0.8.2\pychm-0.8.2>python setup.py install_lib

such file or direc! tory
error: command 'E:\bin\msvs\VC98\BIN\cl.exe' failed with exit status 2
-------------------------------- unsnip ---------------------------------

I have no idea what to do about <inttypes.h>, except to comment it out. The file extra.c seems impossible to compile.

Has anyone got pychm running on WinXP?

I've used this on FedoraCore 4 with great results!
All help appreciated,
Mark Pryor
