Hi! I've just written a Python speech-recognition module (http:// pyspeech.googlecode.com). It provides a clean and simple interface to the Microsoft Speech SDK using COM wrapper classes generated by PythonWin's MakePY utility.
Once this is a mature module, I'd like to make it as useful as possible to the community, so I'd like to make installation as simple as possible. Currently, to get speech.py to work, you must first: * install the Microsoft Speech SDK onto a Windows box, and * possibly install PythonWin, and then * run PythonWin's MakePY utility to generate modules into the gen_py dir. I'd like to remove the MakePY steps, so that as long as a user has run the SDK installer, she can install the 'speech' package and be ready to use it. Can I somehow bundle the generated modules into my setuptools package so that the wrappers are installed at the same time? (If so, how -- just copy them into the package directory?) Or are the wrappers targeted to my machine or installation, so that everyone is forced to go through this? Thanks for any pointers, Michael -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
