After a lengthy, complex and not completely successful attempt to use the (free) Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit Compiler per the Python 2.4 Extensions w/ the MS Toolkit Compiler instructions [1], I switched to using the Mingw/MSYS approach [2]. Works well for 2.4, should work for 2.5 as far as I can see. ht [1] http://www.vrplumber.com/programming/mstoolkit/ [2] http://www.mingw.org/MinGWiki/index.php/Python%20extensions - -- Henry S.
