-1. Add the darcs directory to the search path (see below)
-
-2. Follow the steps in "Building from a tarball"
-
-## Building from a tarball
-
-0. Get Python 2.5 ()
-
-1. Add the Python to the search path (rough translation from German Windows 2000):
-Start -> Settings -> System control -> System -> Enhanced -> Environment variables -> System variables: add ";C:\Python25;C:\Python25\Scripts" to the "Path" entry
-
-3. Install win32api for Python 2.5 ()
-Note: Build 213 does not work on Windows 2000, Build 212 does.
-
-7. Open the command line interpreter (cmd/command)
-
-8. Get Tahoe from Darcs:
- darcs get --lazy tahoe
-
-9. cd to tahoe and build Tahoe:
- python setup.py build
-
-10. Optional: run testcases:
- python setup.py test
-
- Summary on 2009-23-02 on Windows 2000:
-```
-Ran 558 tests in 1281.032s
-
-FAILED (skips=8, expectedFailures=4, errors=1, unexpectedSuccesses=6, successes=
-539)
-```
-
-## Running as different user
-
-0. Create the new user account
-
-1. Run tahoe through "runas":
-```
-runas /user:Computer\Tahoeuser "bin\tahoe.exe start C:\tahoe-basedir"
-```
-
-2. Adjust file system permissions as needed and possible (Home Editions of Windows lack user interfaces to modify permissions)
