    After a couple of weeks working with IDLE, I am trying to add the PTVS extension to VS Express 2013 for Desktop. Following this page, I downloaded the .msi installer and run the file. The dialog opens asking for terms agreement and when approving and clicking Install, I get an error message:

    enter image description here

    So, I went to www.microsoft.com/visualstudio but could not find anything specific to the Python addon.

    Where should I look for adding Python dev support to my MSVS Express 2013 installation?

    Please note that I am using Python for very basic process automation scripting, so no need for web/GUI development, if this matters.

    Hey, I'm trying to set up Emacs to edit Python on Windows. I'm really new to Emacs and I'm using ropemacs. When Emacs starts up it displays Pymacs loading ropemacs for an excessive amount of time. Any way to cut this down?

    Thanks!
