win2k python install
Installing python on a win2k RC1 box, I had the expectation that the
python executable would be on the path. Thus, from an arbitrary
directory, with a dos box, python test.py would find python and execute
it. This does not happen and I am wondering if the install is
*supposed* to put the python executable on the path.

Nope. Setup currently leaves you to your own devices with this.
