== Instructions for VTK-4.4.2-Python-2.4.1.zip ==

This was built using VC7 on a 32 bit Win32 machine by Burkhard Doliwa
for Python 2.4.1, Tcl8.4.11.  Using the dlls requires having an
installed Python-2.4.1 version.

If we assume that your Python install was in `C:\Python24` then simply
unzip the contents of this ZIP file into that directory.  The ZIP file
basically contains the dlls and modules inside `Lib\site-packages\`

You should now be able to use VTK from Python.  To test the install
try this:

 python -c "import vtk; print vtk.vtkVersion().GetVTKSourceVersion()"

If it runs without error you are done.



== Instructions for VTK-Python-4.4.zip ==


This ZIP file was made from the VTK dlls included in an unofficial
[http://www.enthought.com/downloads/downloads.htm Enthought Python
bundle].  Using this ZIP file requires that you have Python-2.3
installed.  

If we assume that your Python install was in `C:\Python23` then simply
unzip the contents of this ZIP file into that directory.  The ZIP file
basically contains files inside `Lib\site-packages\` and also some
inside `Scripts\`.  You should make sure that `C:\Python23\Scripts` is
in your `PATH` (it should be).

You should now be able to use VTK from Python.  To test the install
try this:

 python -c "import vtk; print vtk.vtkVersion().GetVTKSourceVersion()"

If it runs without error you are done.
