Hi, this link is nice but I'm still confused ... 1. on LINUX I create a "pymsgque.so" and I can load this library with "import pymsgque" 2. in WINDOWS, I expect to create a "pymsgque.dll" and do the same as on unix "import pymgque" -> is this behaviour is supported or not ??? 3. the hint with "*.pyd" is totally new to me and I don't know is this the "official" way to use dll's on windows or just a hack which works mfg Andreas Otto -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
