Aha, evidently not. I assumed ( erroneously ) that because I had
toscawidgets through my pylong and tg2 check outs that I had everything.
I see you do recommend installing it on the Toscawidget page. 

I will say that it seems strange that all of toscawidgets doesn't
install with easy_install toscawidgets. Is there a reason for that? 

Will drink a big coffee and try some more!
