[lxml-dev] Installing lxml on Windows

Hi all,

I am trying to install lxml on Windows, well, what I actually want is  
to create a windows python installation that includes lxml already  
installed on it.

I have created a Python program that make use of lxml and I would  
like to distribute it for Windows as an installer. My idea is to  
install Python and all requiered libraries for my software on it and  
then bundle this python folder together with my program.

I am trying to install lxml in Windows and I dont manage. Following  
the instructions that appear on the lxml website seems that I have to  
download the binaries for lxml, libxslt, etc and lace it somewhere, I  
imagine that in the windows folder, but would be possible to have all  
this in the python folder and that lxml make use of them?

I just want to avoid users of my program to download from 10  
different places Python and non-Python programs in order to use my app.

Thanks for any suggestion.

Javier.
