Though it may be worth working out any niggling problems to switch to Linux, I don't think you should feel pressured to switch if you are comfortable with Win ME on that particular machine. > And no, I am not at all attached to Win, though wouldn't > say the same for my computer. It sounds like you could have switched to Linux and resolved any configuration problems in the two years you've been trying to install Python. ;) But that said, I have used older versions of Python without any trouble on Win ME. In fact, I still have a Win ME machine running 2.5.2. According to the docs, you have to have Microsoft Installer 2.0 (freely downloadable from Microsoft if necessary) to use the 2.5 MSI distribution: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5.4/ If for whatever reason you can't or don't want to do this, 2.3 still has an EXE distribution: http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.3.5/ John -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
