Easiest way to get it installed is to install the latest Enthought
Python edition:

Well, I don't understand the typos because there isn't a
VTK-6.4.2*.zip that I know of nor is there a MayaVi-2.5.zip. OTOH if
you do have one of those handy time machines I'd like a copy of the
2.5 release. ;-)

Does the heart.mv file have unix line endings? If so you will need to
convert it to a Windows line ending. I used to use the lfcr.py script
that is usually part of a Python install. It used to be available in
the Enthought Python edition in Tools/Scripts.

C:\MayaVi-1.5\mayavi will not be renamed the installed MayaVi.pyw *is*
the renamed mayavi.
