pip requires a C compiler, such as VC++ or MinGW, in order to install source packages that include C extensions. pip doesn't support exe installers, but these can be converted to the Wheel format that pip 1.4 supports. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/wheel pip is great for virtual environments. But for system installations, it's simpler to use exe/msi installers that can be uninstalled from the Windows control panel. > $ pip search sendkeys > SendKeys - An implementation of Visual Basic's SendKeys > function Christoph Gohlke distributes a Python 2.7 installer for SendKeys: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#sendkeys The SendKeys site on rutherfurd.net is down, but archived (2012-10-25): http://web.archive.org/web/20121025123135/http://www.rutherfurd.net/python/sendkeys SendKeys on Bitbucket (last updated: 2011-09-16): https://bitbucket.org/orutherfurd/sendkeys Reimplementing the _sendkeys.c extension module with ctypes would be a simple project.
