Philip, Geof (et al.), When will a Windows version of GR that supports Python 3 (and complete with one-click installers, much like that advertised for Release 3.7.13.5, below) be available?
The reason I prefer to operate within Windows (as opposed to the various versions of Linux) is that I can thus avoid the seemingly-endless irritations of dependency / incompatibility issues.
