Hi, I can tell You what works for me. (I've got Win7 64bit Professional (propably)) 1. Install python 2.7 on windows (python-2.7.3.msi). Don't install 64bit version even if You've got Win7 64bit because You will run into problems when You would like to install rst2pdf. 2. Configure Windows PATH including the following routes: C:\Python27;C:\ Python27\Scripts It seems to be unnecessary to put other folders on PATH. You may also add Python extension (.PY) to PATHEXT - then all Python scripts will be executable as other Windows executables (.exe, .bat, .com etc.) 3. Restart Windows. Well, actually it is a must on Win XP. On Win7 just open PowerShell and run python - it should works. If not, restart windows ;) 4. setuptools: Download http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py to C:\Python27 and run it. I don't know if it has to be put to Python root folder, but it works this way for sure. 5. Instal Sphinx: open console command and run: easy_install -U Sphinx That's all. -- regards Tawez -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-dev" group.
