[python-win32] scripting pythonwin

[Marcus.CM]

Hi Bob,

Coming from a VC++ to python was not that hard, but there are some 
mentality changes and "gotchas" when i took up python. In your case, if 
you want to learn MFC,
well, actaully its going to a lot more "gotchas" and finer mentality 
changes. But i would recommend the following book if you are serious 
into learning MFC without getting
confused by much of other C++ stuffs :-

-best
