[Tutor] Installation

[Gman]

Hello all,I will try to make this quick.Since the installation topic is  
open I have a question.
Bear in mind "newbie alert" I have 2.5 on windows M.E. and all is well,but  
if I try to use a dos box I get bad command etc. but if I use the python  
dos everything works.Is this normal
or do I need to have windows dos in the path somehow?Or does it really  
matter,it's all the same dos isnt it.And how do you clear the Tkinter  
window.I must say that much of what I read here is beyond me NOW but it is  
like chess you are only as good as your opponents!
