I've done the development on this in PortablePython, but I have python installed in C:/Python25 and that should be in my path (I went though and added it). I've never run a script that output to the command line before, only django apps. Django will output stuff though, which makes me wonder if I've somehow borked my stdout in the script. Not sure how I could have done that, but I'll post the script I've written in the next post just in case I'm somehow messing up the calls (although "print var" seems fairly user-proof...). E: does refer to a removable disc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
