Hrm... perhaps if it is over your head then I should take the hint that it's going to be waaaay over this python newbie's head ;-) I'm too stubborn to back down, though, so I'll give it a try anyway and report back. You're right that setting up the environment on Linux would be far easier. Alas, I would *still* need to get it all into Windows eventually so that would be only a temporary solution. I am a lot more comfortable in that environment, though, so maybe I'll look into that as well.
