thread module under Windows

[Dmitri]

Hi All,

I have been searching the conference for the simple question like "
where the thread module is " and got the answer that it's inside the
python if the threading support is on.
Ok. 

Reading the conference I see that many people use the python in
multi-threading. How they get the python version for windows with
treading support on ( I am not talking about other optional services
now... )???

Now the question - I understand, that I could and must rebuild the
python under the unix/linux/cygwin environment to have the treading
support be on.
What about the windows? Could I download the python with optional
services installed, i.e.  should I build the python for the windows
myself if I want to have some optional services be on? If yes, I think
that the only way to do it is to build the python under cygwin. Would
it be compatible enough to run the python from windows command prompt
after that?


With the best regards,
