Wing is an IDE, that is, a fancy editor. As far as I know, you shouldn't have to take any special steps to get numpy etc. working with Wing, you just install them in the usual fashion. Do you need help with installing Python packages? If you have pip installed, you can just type: pip install numpy scipy matplotlib from your *operating system* command prompt. Not the Python shell! On Linux, you would open a terminal and you should see a prompt that ends with a $ sign. On Windows, you run cmd.exe or command.com or whatever it is called, I forget. If you see a prompt >>> then you're in the Python shell and pip won't work. However, installing numpy and scipy from scratch like this is often difficult on Windows, as you need access to a Fortran or C compiler. Many people prefer to use a Python environment that has numpy etc. already pre-installed.
