I googled: vtk for beginners python. >From there, I found this: >http://www.nabble.com/pls-help-how-to-install-VTK-and-run-td14977428.html And from there, this: http://www-viz.tamu.edu/courses/viza658/08spring/tutorials/WinVTKInstall.html This last one has very detailed info about how to get started with VTK. I am now redoing the installing VTK thing. Hope it will work. Helvin -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
