export PYTHONDOCS='/Users/opstad/Documents/Devel

/usr/local/PythonDocs.
Thanks for any help...

f you have installed them, please
set the envirenment variable PYTHONDOCS to indicate their location." I have
downloaded them and they are in the same folder with Pythons other files.
I'm using XP. I can open the HTML file manually and it opens ok. Can I use
Python regardless? Thanks!
