Several people have requested source and/or makefiles for some of
the PC ports of Python.  And there are now four PC ports of Python plus
two of WPY, and the names of all these ports are confusing.

So I have reorganized the PC source distribution.  It now includes
all source and all project files (makefiles) for all ports.  The
archive name is still wpyntsrc.exe.  The compilers used are Watcom
10.5, and Microsoft Visual C++ version 1.5 and 2.0.  It should be
easy to alter config.h for different PC compilers.

And I renamed all the binaries to (hopefully) more systematic names.
The current Python and WPY PC binaries available are:

Python line-by-line interactive character-mode PC ports:
  pyth_w31.zip      Windows 3.1 (requires a winsock.dll)
  pyth_os2.zip      OS/2
  pyth_nt.zip       Windows NT (requires py13an.dll)
  pyth_dos.zip      32-bit DOS including the DOS extender
  py13an.zip        My Python core DLL for the NT port

WPY and Python for windowing GUI PC programs
  wpy_w31.zip       Windows 3.1
  wpy_nt.zip        Windows NT (requires py13an.dll)

All the above are available on ftp.interet.com in /pub/python.
This is mirrored at www.python.org and at cwi.nl.  Allow a
couple days for it to get there.
