When I try to run the NumTut demo in Numeric in my cygwin hosted python, I get a tclerror: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]": no such file or directory. But the file does indeed exist.
At first glance it seems like a problem with cygwin mapping WinNT paths to POSIX paths, but I have played around with the environment variable that controls where this tempfile goes, and I am beginning to think that the problem lies somewhere else. All the other Numeric tests work, and all my tkinter demos run OK. Not sure what to try next. Any suggestions?
