If the download site doesn't specifically offer a 2.6-compatible version that's likely the problem here, sorry :( In the meantime take a look at WingIDE - there's a free or low-cost version that might meet your needs, and I'd be very surprised if they weren't 2.6-compatible on the day of 2.6's release. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +1 571 484 6266 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC http://www.holdenweb.com/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
