<p>Detlev,</p>
<p>Many thanks for your response. Since seeking guidance, using the
procedure described below, I have succeeded in installing Eric6
and started with my first module.</p>
<p>Now, I am all at sea, trying to set the various options for
Eric6. It looks as though Eric is a powerful tool. I come from
PyScripter, after few year break.</p>
<p>Thanks again got your message.</p>
<p>Colin W.</p>
