* Postgre 8.2.3 Windows PL/Python Support

I'm working with Postgre 8.2.4 in Windows (PostgreSQL 8.2.4 on
i686-pc-mingw32, compiled by GCC gcc.exe (GCC) 3.4.2 (mingw-special) )
and I had a terrible time getting PL/Python to install. After a bit of
trial-and-error and searching, I determined there was a Python version
dependency and a change needed to be made to the Windows path. Python
2.4 (I haven't tested more recent versions) needed to be installed and
the Python and Postgre needed to be in the Windows path.
I noticed someone wrote this message 6 months ago....
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2007-01/msg00059.php
When will this information be put into the documentation? Is there a
way I can help? I don't want anyone else to go through what I did.
Thanks,
Tom

You could supply a patch to the docs in Docbook that discusses the
problem. That would be a great help.

Brian, can you give me some text I can add to the documentation? Thanks.

Isn't this handled already? See the running-on-win32 FAQ question 4.1 and
the win32 installation instructions at
http://pginstaller.projects.postgresql.org/.
Except I think we need to update the versions on that page. Dave, can you
update that one with whatever version you have in your build environment,
since that's what goes in the binaries? Thanks!

Magnus,
I believe you are correct. It might also be good to include it in the
HTML Helpfile (CHM).
