I installed Python 2.5 on Windows XP. I got the following system that works well. --- Python 2.5b3 (r25b3:51041, Aug 3 2006, 09:35:06) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.
IDLE 1.2b3 >>> import sys >>> sys.path ['C:\\Python25\\Lib\\idlelib', 'C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\python25.zip', 'C:\\Python25\\DLLs', 'C:\\Python25\\lib', 'C:\\Python25\\lib\\plat-win', 'C:\\Python25\\lib\\lib-tk', 'C:\\Python25', 'C:\\Python25\\lib\\site-packages', 'C:\\Python25\\lib\\site-packages\\wx-2.6-msw-ansi'] >>> --- Question: How did I end up with the second item in path? Is that a zip file? There is no such a file in system32. What would be the correct way to set path to assist the search? Thanks for any advice. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
