On Windows platforms, Python(x,y) is indeed the simplest way of installing a 32-bit Python environment from scratch. I always keep a copy of the main installer on my USB key: so far, it's been a huge help (everywhere I go, if there is a PC with Windows, I can code with a complete working Python environment in less than 10 minutes). > I don't know why installing Spyder needs to be so difficult; I think a > lot more people would use it if there was a clear install guide. > > Also the documentation seems to be spread out among several different > web sites: > > http://packages.python.org/spyder/ > http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/ > http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/w/list > > (the last one is kind of hidden and hard to find; you have to click on > the "Wiki" link at http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/wiki/Support) > > It would be easier for those of us new to Spyder (and Python) if these > were consolidated into one place. > > That's an interesting point of view.
