[wxPython] new installation, demo fails

Which leads me to believe that my PYTHONPATH entry is wrong.

My PYTHONPATH is:

E:\Projects;E:\wxWindows;E:\wxWindows\lib;E:\Python16\Lib\plat-win
;E:\Python
16\Lib;E:\Python16\DLLs;E:\Python16\Lib\lib-tk;

Er, do you mean E:\wxPython (and ...\lib) rather than E:\wxWindows? Or

did

you just confuse the names when installing wxPython (not a great idea,
particularly if you also do wxWindows/C++ programming...).

I put both E:\wxWindows and E:\wxWindows\lib on the PYTHONPATH to ascertain
why Python 1.6 and wxWindows were not working together. (Sadly, only doing
Python programming these days..)

I have reinstalled both Python and wxPython under Win2k, but this time I
forced the wxWindows installer to place itself under E:\Python16. Now when
running the demo it displays an 'abnormal program termination' in a dialog
box and then terminates. I traced it as far as I could in IDLE and it
crashes on the line 'import wxc'. And I am bummed. I know this can work
and now I really hate Win2k for making it such a pain. (please no OS
flames..)

I use win2k, it shouldn't be this hard. Did you use the version of the
wxPython installer specifically built for Python 1.6? (See the web page.)
