Hmm, thanks for your help.  I did as you suggested.  I do have 2 versions
installed, but verified that it was running the correct version (1 is 2.1
under cygwin, and the other is 2.2 under win2k), and it was running 2.1 as
is correct.  And checking sys.path shows that the directory that contains Ft
(/usr/lib/python2.1/site-packages) is in the path.  Any other suggestions?
