Doesn't the install step do that automatically? Or did it break?

This gets compiled from C sources. Do you a C compiler on your system? "Python 2.6 is built with MicroSoft Visual Studio 2008 (aka VC++ v 9.0), but the free VC++ 2008 Express Edition compiles Python extensions just fine", according to http://mien.sourceforge.net/docs/platform_win.html#py26 > > Thanks in advance, > Romi > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are > powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
