awesome, thanks.
the path was set right, but turns out it was set in PythonPath, not Path
do i need to have %PATH% before the various paths?
cheers

AIM: i'm trying to use Drive API with Python 2.7.3 to read and write files.

PROBLEM: is with the install of "easy_install" (ironic, i know)

1. I have enabled the drive api
2. I can see that the google client library must be there because the files
are in c:/program files/python/scripts

BUT when i type easy_install into cmd window it is not recognised

Type "path" into the command window and double-check that C:/Program
Files/Python/Scripts is listed.

(Do check, also, that C:/Program Files/Python/Scripts is actually
where easy_install.exe is located -- the standard installation
location for many versions of Python would be C:\Python27, not
C:\Program Files\Python.)


http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4016151/how-to-use-pythons-easy-install-on-windows-its-not-so-easy?rq=1
mentions that "you should see that your winpexpect package has been
installed correctly." winexpect. where is this located? how is this done?

That discussion is actually about installing winpexpect, not about
installing easy_install.  So the problem that person was having is
entirely unrelated to the one you are having.
