how to get python pexpect module on windows?

http://techi2teach.blogspot.com/2011/01/how-to-get-python-pexpect-module-on.html From quite a long time i was looking for a python module like "pexpect" for windows OS. I have wasted so many hours of mine to get some work around, finally what i got might help you all. 1. We can install pexpect module of python on windows . :) :) But it requires cygwin installation. 2. Download Cygwin and install from any official site. Eg: http://cygwin.com 3. Once cygwin installation has completed, start cygwin session. (execute: cygwin.bat from installation directory or double click shortcut of cygwin on your desktop.) 4. All windows directories will be referenced with respect to /cygdrive . Eg: D: directory will be referenced as /cygdrive/d/ 5. execute following given below commands: Make sure python is installed on your system if not please install before executing given below commands. #### assuming your python installation directory is C:/python25 #### $ alias pythonpath=/cygdrive/c/python25/python $ export pythonpath 6. Now check all well or not : $ which python /usr/local/python #### if every thing will be ok It will return "/usr/local/python" other wise go through steps given above and check u did all as mentioned there ############# 7. Now get your pexpect.tar.gz file. $ tar -xvzf pexpect.tar.gz $ cd pexpect $ python setup.py build $ python setup.py install 8. Now you can use pexpect in your python script: Note: you can use pexpect module on python from cygwin prompt only (For: Windows OS).
