Thinking is a very good idea, but when you are a new user of a piece of software it's an even better idea to read the manual (http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/2to3.html) and check that it follows the usual command-line help convention (c:\python30\python c:\python30\tools\scripts\2to3.py --help) and that the fancy Windows help for Python is working ((Windows XP) click on Start>All Programs>Python 3.0>Python Manuals, type 2to3 then Enter) just in case you are ever disconnected from the Internet and/or want faster response.
