Well, upon inspection of the various directories, everything seemed to be there, so I ran the interpreter and it seemed to work. Evaluated a simple expression at the >>> prompt, imported a module and ran its function. So, I don't know what part of the install failed. If anyone can tell me where to find the various scripts that the MPKG runs, that would help. Thanks, Mark -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
