Perhaps the wording can be improved, but have you ever installed source code 
from an .exe file or a Windows CE .cab file? I haven't.

I haven't seen this specific error message but I assume it is due to .py 
files not being properly associated with python.exe.

No, I simply haven't added the file associations to the CAB installer yet. I 
will try to do this for the next release but in the mean time copy the 
attached setup-registry.py to your PDA, run Python and then type:

execfile('\\program files\\python\\setup-registry.py')

The script can be placed anywhere though, this is just an example path.
