Hi Richard,

Hi Jim,
Remember that Python comes with batteries. So the standard library generally
provides the tools you need. Try the following short script to unzip a file
named 'filename.tar.gz'
import tarfile
tar = tarfile.open('filename.tar.gz')
tar.extractall()
tar.close()

Hi Jacob,
So you're saying that I should get the source then? Do you know if WinZip can
handle tar files?
Thanks.

All I can really say, since haven't used that library/repository as such - if
that's what it is, is that generally, to install a module for later use,
something along the lines of the following command will install it under python
itself - run from the extracted directory, where there is then a setup.py file:
python setup.py install

Hi,
I have Python 2.7.3. I seem to be reading conflicting information about how to
go to Pypi and find and install packages. I'm using Windows. Can anyone point
to straight forward information about this?
Thanks.
Jim
