    Exclamation Installing libraries on Python : The very bascis ?


    Well, I've been enjoying Python a lot lately,

    Yet, GUI-wise I am looking to import new Libraries like GTK and wxPython.

    But I have no idea at all how to install thoses packages ( on windows ). It seams like I have to add some Environement Variables, Yet I can't find any instructions on that :S

    I'm quite sure it's really easy, just need some pointers about the Final Setup...

    Everything I find on this is Linux-based :S

      My friends who did a project in Python used the Python imaging library and PyFLTK during Graphics Programming last year. However, that package may have clearer instructions.

      If you're interested in using PyFLTK, I'll ask them (I used C++ myself, sorry...).

        wxPython has Windows installers for various releases of Python. The latest ones are found off the wxPython Binaries page, and the full list of installers is on their Sourceforge page. If you're doing any sort of GUI development with wx, I'd definitely grab the Docs & Demos installer as well, it's invaluable.

        I'm less familiar with GTK, but it looks like there's installers for Python 2.6 on the pyGTK site.

        Many popular Python packages offer Windows installers, but occasionally you'll find one that does not. If they're listed on the Python Package Index (PyPI) you should be able to install them anyway using Easy Install.

          Curious on why you need a gui toolkit? Ive debated this myself and have had trouble getting those tools, GTK and WX as well.
