But, to hopefully answer your questions:
Cheers! Andrew

Hi Ethan,
first of all: thank you for your fast response. I checked the modules and you were right, "Pyro" does not exist.
Unfortunately I did not find the module anywhere. Is it maybe a problem, that I installed Python 2.3.4. I followed the "Instructions for Python 2.3", given on the "Windows Install: Step-by-step" site. On the same site, in "Instructions for Python 2.2 (old)" something is said that an installation of Python-2.2.1 is recommended and more recent releases of Python are available, but a bug (SF #651701) affects ephys_server/gui in Python 2.2.2 and 2.2.3....??? Mabbe that is the problem?
Any ideas?
I hope I´ll get it run ....
Thanks again Joe

I had that problem too as a newbie. I still am not sure where to put modules to load. I am putting them as subdirectories of the python executable files.
1. First you have to check you loaded the "Pyro" module at all. From the
cmd line in MS_Windows
Python
Help ()
Modules
See if Pyro was loaded.
It seems you must load pyro to get it to run.
2. Install Pyro and make sure you are successful: you should see a spew of
modules loaded in the cmd box if it loads OK.
3. First I ran ephys_server "python ephys_server". You should see a windows box for a opening a port 7766 or the like.
Then I ran ephys_gui (I think that ran in python windows as a .pyw file).
Then I was able to get to the construction screens you mentioned. Not so simple for us newbies.
Ethan.

Hello everybody,
I want to perform some electrophysiological experiments on the visual system of birds.
As I searched the internet I came accross the Vision Egg programm and when I saw the screenshots of the Ephys_gui I found this programm to fit very well to my experimental setup. I want to present gratings, bars etc with different properties and in varying angles. The problem is that I am new to any programming.
I successfully installed the programms as recommended under "Instruction for Python2.3" and downloaded the demos.
If I go to the Python folder (using the Windows-"Start"-button - "Programs" - "Python 2.3.4"), I can start:
IDLE (python GUI), Module Docs, Python (command line), etc... OK, now my
question: how can I make the Ephys_gui run (...if I doubleclic on the demofile nothing happends)? Is there any way to perform easy experiments using Vision Egg without learning a whole programming language (the Ephys_gui seem to provide all parameters I want to be controlled...)?
I hope anyone can give me some advice.
Thanks in advance.
Joe
