Pygtk package does not work

2009-07-23 Thread Alister Hood
Hi, Does anyone know where to find a pygtk package that actually works? If I install pygtk using the cygwin installer and run `import gtk`, it fails with `ImportError: No module named gtk`. It installed the site-packages into the python2.4 folder, so I've tried copying this into the python2.5 fold

But your question is how readline is not working, and yet your cygcheck shows that q is not even using readline (unless it is loading it dynamically after the fact, as if by dlsym). So you're probably asking the wrong question. OK, fair enough. I should have said "readline-like behaviour". Ha
