Yes, I knew that copying it to my root was a kludge. But between that and not having it work, I chose the former. (As you might be able to tell from my posts, I tried multiple things and was frustrated.) I tried putting quotes around "c:\program files\python24". It still didn't work.
I chose to install Python in Program Files. I didn't know it would cause any problems; I just thought it was good to have all my programs in the same place. I guess I was wrong. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
