I finally found a way to let everything work:
My base system is a stable Scipy installation, based on Python 2.4, with a few extra or updated libraries. This Python installation is completed with RPYC and PyScripter, to form a good workplace to develop GUI through wxPython. Installing of a working Python 2.5 version is done in the following way: - get a winXP system on which Python is not necessary - install on that PC Python 2.5 - copy from windows\system32\Python25.dll to the root where you installed Python 2.5 - now you can move the newly created root map to any place you like - place a shortcut to python.exe on your desktop - drop any file you like to run in Python 2.5 on the shortcut Seems to work like a charm. But maybe there might be better ways. cheers, Stef -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
