Their webpage has nice examples, and it looks promising, so I
downloaded it, but:

python.exe setup.py install
d:\python23\lib\distutils\dist.py:227: UserWarning: Unknown
distribution option: 'platform'
  warnings.warn(msg)
running install
running build
running build_py
running build_ext
error: Python was built with version 6 of Visual Studio, and
extensions need to be built with the same version of the compiler, but
it isn't installed.

Bah!

Maybe there is something in the .py files I can use.
