New submission from Michael Driscoll :
In http://docs.python.org/devguide/setup.html#windows the devguide mentions
that the user must go to the "Build" menu to run "Build Solution". When I tried
doing that with Visual C++ 2010 per the instructions, I discovered that there

@Brian - Sorry I didn't include a screenshot earlier. I was running it on a
machine without good screen capturing software. I've rectified that and
attached a screenshot for you. I suspect that there's a difference between the

Michael Driscoll added the comment:
Yeah, my patch didn't turn out the way I expected. I replaced "Build" with
"Debug" and then noticed that it also referred to some kind of "build"
drop-down that didn't seem like the right term. I couldn't figu

Here's a new patch that I think addresses both issues. Thanks for your insights.

@ Eli - Sorry about that. I just went with Brian's wording on that. I didn't
realize it was plural. My experience with Visual Studio is limited, although I
hope to rectify that at some point. Anyway, I corrected the patch and attached

Thanks for the tip Eli. I'll try to remember to number my patches next time.
This is my first time doing this.

Looking at 3.3.rst, it looks like we could just add the blurb to the end of the
file in the "Other issues" section. The "windows.rst" file is potentially more
complicated as I assume we need to leave the directions for adding the path
New submission from Michael Driscoll :
I was reading through http://docs.python.org/faq/windows.html and noticed that
its examples are based on Python 2.2-2.3 and it only really covers up to
Windows 2000 with just a couple mentions of XP.
There are also sections in there that I'm not

Michael Driscoll added the comment:
Here are a few proposals that spring to mind:
1a) Update all Windows references to Windows 7 or Vista/7. We can include XP,
but I think Microsoft is dropping support next year.
1b) Update all Python references to the current version instead of 2.2 and 2.3
Michael Driscoll added the comment:
I know Python 3.x still runs on XP too, but should we continue to mention it in
our documentation? I don't know. Part of the reason I wrote up all that was to
see if people had any well thought out arguments one way or the other on these
things.

Should the patch for 1b replace Python 2.2 with Python 2.7/3.2 or just Python
3.2?

Could we say just Python and ignore the version number? Or would Python 2.7
work for the 2.7 branch patch since there isn't supposed to be a 2.8 and then
for Python 3 we could go with 3.x?

I'm assuming Nick is talking about the stdtypes.rst (in Doc/library) file,
correct? If so, I went ahead and created a simple patch that almost uses his

After reading up on both issues, I think I found all the instances that were
deprecated and removed them. A patch is attached that includes the edits for

I just noticed that we'll need to update the Documentation for tkinter too as
it mentions the AtEnd etc methods. Do you want me to create a patch for that or
a new ticket + patch?

Here's the doc patch. The local repo I was using yesterday is on a different
computer that I don't have access to today. Hopefully applying two patches is
okay. If not, I can redo the other patch and add it to this one.
