One more advice so you don't get caught with the problems:
(Well I suggest that you start using virtualenvs as well, they really rock)
After installing TCC/LE create one batch file (I use tcstart.btm) with
the following contents:
@echo off
rem Set python binding to handle virtualenvironments
set .py;.pyc=python.exe
Note, if you're not using virtual environments or not have your python
in the path use full absolute path instead of just "python.exe".
Create a shortcut on your desktop (or anywhere you like).
Open properties of the shortcut and set "target" to something like
"C:\Program Files (x86)\JPSoft\TCCLE12\tcc.exe" "c:\mysettings\tcstart.btm"
And of course, "start in" is good to place where ever you have your
projects, removes need for extra cd.
This should get you up and running smoothly and should get around the
problem of windows peculiarities in python invocation.

I certainly will. Thanks for the advice:)

It's apparently TCC/LE which saves me about all that command
execution and arg passing hazzle.. :)
Never used plain command prompt so I've been immune to peculiarities
of Windows command line utilities.
I suggest you give it a try - it's really nice.

Sounds very goofy. django-admin.py just creates files,
doesn't open any editors so there is somthing really fishy
going on in your machine...

What I mean is, I can create 2 or 3 new projects without
problems. I play with them and create files, etc. Then,
for whatever reason, when I run django-admin.py
startproject <projectname> again, an editor widow opens
(emacs in my case, since that is what I was using), and
django doesn't create any files. All I can do is edit
the projects I already have created.

I really suggest you to use virtualenv, it makes
your life easier in the long run. Also I use a
TCC/LE instead of powershell / cmd prompt to mimic
more unix like environment.
Though you mentioned " After a while, if I try to
start a new project, my editor opens and no files or
directories are created. " what you exactly mean by
that?
I feel that I should write short article how to make
development in win7 slightly less painful...

Since I've been doing all my django

any major problems...

After first installing Django, I am able
to use "django-admin.py startproject
<projectname>" with no problem. After a
while, if I try to start a new project,
my editor opens and no files or

LOTS of research, it turns out this is a
rather common problem/bug. I have tried
what feels like everything. I have
edited the PATH, checked that all
appropriate registry entries are
"python.exe" "%1" %* (I even tried %%),
I've tried variations of "django-admin
startproject" and "python django-admin
startproject". The only thing that has
worked so far is reinstalling Django.
However, I wind up encountering the same
problem eventually. Does anyone have a
permanent fix not listed here? I am
running Python27, Django 1.4, and
Windows 7. Thanks in advance.
