Actually, a third (Python) question: If I do add a "site library"
directory,
what do I need to do to get Python to recognise it by default? Looking at the documentation of the site module, it looks like Unix has a site-python directory already, via sys.prefix, whereas Windows doesn't. Should/could I just set sys.prefix somehow? (Maybe this should be directed to somewhere like the Python newsgroup, though).
You can set the environment variable PYTHONPATH to give additional directories to search for python modules.
Or add it to the registry in HKLM\Software\Python\PythonCore\2.0\PythonPath, or make a file named sitecustomize.py in your Python root directory that imports sys and inserts or appends to sys.path directly. -- Robin Dunn Software Craftsman robin@AllDunn.com http://wxPython.org Java give you jitters? http://wxPROs.com Relax with wxPython!
