Hi Jacob, The version I am using is 3.6. I am working on JAWS scripts for it, so I destroyed it and installed it again, so I could make sure I was using the default settings. I don't have PyDev installed right now. Are you able to get 3.6? I forget most of what I learned about Python, so I expect to be very little help there. If you get 3.6, you can go into the Help menu and install stuff. I was thinking of trying out the Web Tools Plug-in, since I'm going to be doing a lot of HTML work soon.

Sorry, but have never really looked into eclipse before, and the eclipse specific tutorial material I got along with this whole version of it, is just pretty much minimal actual text, and a bunch of scanned images, so it hasn't meant too much to me either...<smile> Like said, I think the idea would be to allow eclipse to help manage references to classes/modules, and maybe help with compiling/wrapping the python code into then relevant executable versions or something, but not too sure on that either.
