I'm not sure if that really works out. You can create eggs as distribution format if you ahve setuptools installed like this: easy_install-2.5 . in the PyXML-dir. This should create an egg that you then can install on all other machines using easy_install-2.5 <egg> However, given that you used the GCC, I doubt you can really omit cygwin. If you do things with the mingw though, it might work out. Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
