[PythonCE] Getting the win32 extensions working

[Andy Baker]

Ah. I've re-read that page and I can see I might have misunderstood
it. I was under the impression that you *had* to compile the sources
if you wanted the win32 extensions.Is this not the case? Do the
pre-compiled binaries already include the win32 stuff?

As a quick related question, do you have any idea how much of the
win32 extension module is supported under PythonCE? Fairly complete or
not?

cheers,

AndyB
