    install wxPython on windows without admin?

    The subject line says it all. Is there a way to install wxPython on a
    Windows machine without admin privs? I love the way python doesn't
    need admin to install locally, and I'd like to try wxPython w/o having
    to get our help desk involved.

    Do I have to compile it from source with Cygwin?

    Thanks.

      Installing wxPython on Cygwin from source is an uphill battle which I
      would recommend against, though it's possible it's been done ...

          I agree with that. After I posted, I went to install wxPython on my
          linux box and ran into trouble with getting wxWidgets installed
          because of gtk version issues. I did it before, but since then our OS
          has changed from FC3 to CentOS 5 and not everything gets installed
          that needs to be. I may try and get back to it when I get the chance,
          but for now, it's Tkinter and Pmw.
