Andy,

I figured it was some confusion on my part. I've been away from Python
for several
years - Mostly doing Fortran.

The installer worked fine. Ran the tests and 193 passed with an OK.

Next time my buddy is in London (a consultant for some part of what used
to be
BR) I'll have him by you a pint.


Thanks,

John Conner
