xfree. I'm a unix sysadmin and would normally run linux or freebsd on my laptop, but it turns out I also need access to Windows software. My solution is to use the cygwin package with the cygwin port of xfree. It works extremely well, and building packages mostly just works. > P.S. : what do you mean by "the binary package is not cygwin friendly". You > use python as provided by the cygwin distribution ?

In any event, it configures/builds just fine, except that when I try to use it, I discover that none of the widgets exist. > pretty straightforward using the configure script. You might have to fight > with dlltool/dllwrap to generate the _gtk.pyd though. If you want to use What's a .pyd? Also, there doesn't seem to be a Makefile rule for the creation of _gtk.py*. Perhaps this is my problem? _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
