Hi, I work with Python 3.3. I downloaded an IPython executable version from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ I installed it but no shortcut appears in my start menu. How can I launch it or alternatively is there some other free source of executable file for Windows 7?
The IPython installer actually mentions this when it finishes installing: "Distribute (setuptools) is required to create Start Menu items. Re-run this installer after installing distribute to get Start Menu items." You can grab the setup for distribute from: http://python-distribute.org/distribute_setup.py If your Python 3.3 installation is part of your PATH, you simply do: python3 distribute_setup.py install When it's finished, run the IPython installer again and you'll find it now creates a start menu shortcut for you. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
