==================================
The zip file pyth14b3.zip contains a preliminary binary release of
-Python 1.4beta3 for Windows NT 3.5, with Tcl/Tk support. The
-installation has not been tested on Windows '95 or Windows 3.1 with
-Win32s. For general information on Python, see http://www.python.org/.
+Python 1.4beta3 for Windows NT 3.5 and Windows '95, with Tcl/Tk
+support. The installation has not been tested on Windows 3.1 with
+Win32s. For general information on Python, see
+http://www.python.org/.
To install:
Unzip the archive in the root of a file system with enough space. It
will create a directory \Python1.4b3 containing subdirectories Bin and
-Lib and files setup.bat and setup.py. (If you don't have a zip
-program that supports long filenames, get the file winzip95.exe and
-install it -- this is WinZip 6.1 for 32-bit Windows systems.)
+Lib and some files, including setup.bat, setup.py, uninstall.bat, and
+uninstall.py. (If you don't have a zip program that supports long
+filenames, get the file winzip95.exe and install it -- this is WinZip
+6.1 for 32-bit Windows systems.)
Run the SETUP.BAT file found in directory just created. When it is
done, press Enter.
default suggested by the installer), set TCL_LIBRARY to
"C:\TCL\lib\tcl7.5" and set TK_LIBRARY to "C:\TCL\lib\tk4.1".
+On Windows '95, you also need to add the directory "C:\TCL\bin" (or
+whereever the Tcl bin directory ended up) to the PATH environment
+variable. (Sorry, I don't know how to do this myself :-( )
+
Once Tcl/Tk is installed, you should be able to type the following
commands in Python:
This creates a simple test dialog box (you may have to move the Python
window a bit to see it). Click on OK to get the Python prompt back.

+To uninstall:
+
+Run the batch file UNINSTALL.BAT. This will run the Python script
+uninstall.py, which undoes the registry additions and removes most
+installed files. The batch file then proceed to remove some files
+that the Python script can't remove (because it's using them). The
+batch file ends with an error because it deletes itself. Hints on how
+to avoid this (and also on how to remove the installation directory
+itself) are gracefully accepted.
