Python-2.3.3.exe

The default path for installing Python is C:\Python23 so that's what I'll use.

On the Select Components install page during setup, leave all options checked.

After setup, if you're using Win98, you'll want to add the python dir to your
path setting in autoexc.bat, something like this (cant remember exactly off the
top of my head): 

PATH=C:\windows:C:\windows\system;C:\python23

On win2k or XP, after running setup you're done. 
you can move python23.dll from your Buzz dir at this point.
It's worth backing up to another area on your hdd.

You should restart so file + registry settings take effect.

The editor that comes with Python, IDLE, is a great editor.

I occasionally still like to edit with Notepad so, the settings that python 
registers on the right click menu of .py files needed to be changed a bit. 
If you want to do this, Search your registry for 'Edit with IDLE'.

If should be in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Python.File\shell\

Create some duplicates of that registry key and modify them:

name=Edit with Notepad
open\command=\value=%SystemRoot%\system32\notepad.exe "%1"

name=Edit with Wordpad
open\command=\value=%SystemRoot%\system32\wordpad.exe "%1"

IDLE tips: instead of using rightclick to edit a py file
in IDLE, have a shortcut to IDLE on your desktop. You 
can copy the IDLE shortcut from your Start->Programs->Python
menu or create one point to C:\Python23\pythonw.exe "C:\Python23\Lib\idlelib\idle.pyw"

Because, If you open a .py but right-click->Edit with IDLE, after you
run the script or stop in in the test/run window it will auto close. 

The Run/test util in IDLE is great when working on non-pybuzz python code.

When I edit py files just for pybuzz i normally use notepad.

When editing/running pybuzz scripts, you can just rightclick pybuzz->update import
to refresh/reload your script quickly.
