[z3-five] Five under Windows

[Jeroen Janssen]

Hello,

Here's what I had to do to get Five working under windows.

(Note that I already had python2.3 installed).

1) install zope3 package from http://zope.org/Products/ZopeX3 (this ends 
up in C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages\zope with all the needed binary(pyd) 
files, since I don't have the needed compilers to build the needed zope 
pyd files.

Question: does this mean non-windows users also need to perform a build 
of zope3 before the "INSTALLATION" will work?

2) install zope2.7 from http://zope.org/Products/Zope/2.7.1 (instance 
ended up in C:\Zope-Instance

3) download Five from http://codespeak.net/svn/z3/Five/trunk/ (using 
svn), this ended up in C:\Zope-Instance\Products\Five

I added the following lines to C:\Zope-Instance\etc\zope.conf:

	path C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages

This makes sure the zope3 package installed during step1 is found 
correctly, however this also means that everything else (non-zope) could 
be used, I'm not sure if that is a good thing.

4) copy C:\Zope-Instance\Products\Five\demo\* to 
C:\Zope-Instance\Products, so you'll end up with useable FiveDemo and 
FiveViewsDemo Products

5) startup zope

However, since I'm all new to this... I'm not sure what I should do now 
to see that it all works now ... except for adding a SimpleContent 
object as test, and then do http://localhost/test/eagle.txt as described 
in the FiveViewsDemo readme.

Best regards,
