re: Where mathematics comes from
Well, why make the Windows people wait? Chompin at the bit here.
That's what I like to hear. I'm still stymied a bit by the IDLE situation. Soon enough there will be no reason to distribute an IDLE with VPython, so my VPython distro does and will not include it. But if I take Kirby as an audience of one, as of the moment you may have nothing conventiently available to run VPython scripts without the older forked IDLE. Kirby - I'm happy to send along the VPython and PyGeo distros I prepared. In fact I would like a reaction, and a test. But you'd be on your own as to an editor. Though Scite/Scintilla - which Patrick mentioned in conjunction with PyCrust - would be an excellent choice, IMO. At http://www.scintilla.org Scintilla I would call a library for text editor functionality. SCite is an actual implementation of an editor, using the scintilla library. So you would want the Scite executable distribution. As a cross language guy it should be up your ally. Designed to work with many, many languages - that is as to basic editor functionality like keyword syntaxing etx. Highly customizable. Create and play with the local.properties file, which overrides the global.properties file. Let me know if I should send stuff along. Art Art

Must I use IDLE? Can't I use PyCrust? Or does the use of wxPython mean I can't use any Tk.

I'd start with gVim and see if that suited my needs.

Sure. Kirby

Don't let Guido hear you talking like that. ;-) music-to-my-ears-ly y'rs - Pat -- Patrick K. O'Brien Orbtech http://www.orbtech.com/web/pobrien ----------------------------------------------- "Your source for Python programming expertise." -----------------------------------------------
