The pywin32 extension does not contain the python runtime itself, but comes with many (very useful) classes you can use when interacting with the windows universe. The editor is based on a component called scintilla (http://www.scintilla.org/). The referenced site also offers an editor SciTE based around the component, which comes with some nice features and syntax files for a number of languages.
If you are going to make use of python on the windows platform, I would highly recommend the pywin32 extension. Regards, Ant W. Watson wrote: > I downloaded python-2.5.msi and installed it.
