I thought I'd give <http://svn.python.org/projects/python/branches/release25-maint/> (the latest release (plus bug fixes) of Python) a try. I first backed up my Python25 folder (I'm using Win XP). Then with Python 25 open I opened the Explorer context menu for the folder and then the TortoiseSVN sub-menu. There doesn't seem to have a menu item that will enable me to update. I tried Export... and entered <http://svn.python.org/projects/python/branches/release25-maint/> as "URL of repository", but that choice seems to expect the Python25 folder to be empty. Can you tell me what to do to just update? Dick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
