I downloaded the package Python 2.5.1-2. I then started to install that package but was running another instance of cygwin and had to cancel the installation. I then killed the cygwin window and tried again to reinstall Python. However I get an error that "setup.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close." and I can't install Python. I've tried rebooting and downloaded the Python package a second time, but it won't let me install Python. I've tried 5-6 times and it ends badly each time. Is there any recourse other than removing my ejavascript:SetCmd(cmdSend);ntire Cygwin installation and then trying again? I really don't want to do that.

  • You can enable syntax highlighting of source code with the following tags: <code>, <blockcode>, <c>, <cpp>, <drupal5>, <drupal6>, <java>, <javascript>, <php>, <python>, <ruby>. Beside the tag style "<foo>" it is also possible to use "[foo]". PHP source code can also be enclosed in <?php ... ?> or <% ... %>.
