[Tutor] Wrestling with the Py2exe Install, Win7[XP!], Py2.5

[Wayne Watson]

Got it. Fooled myself. I'm converting to  Win7 and have my XP keyboard 
and monitor side by side with the same for XP. I did the world program 
in XP and py2exe module in W7!!

world compiled and ran successfully. Now for a bigger program with 
matplotlib and tkinter. Maybe I'll just settle for a small matplotlib 
program for the moment. VBG

Thanks very much.
