Hello: I just installed the 2.4 version of Python on a WinXP box. I then copied over my python code which runs under Linux. This code uses "curses.ascii" (isspace specifically).
The Win version of the libraries has a curses directory and within it, the ascii.py module. Unfortunately, the __init__.py module in the curses directory expects to import "_curses" (as it does on Linux), and this is nowhere to be found in the Windows python install directory (it is part of a shared library under Linux). To get around the problem, I simply commented out the entire __init__.py module, but this provides only symptomatic relief. Any readers know why the "_curses" library is missing, or in other words, have I found an "error of omission"?
