c:\OpenSSL\bin

In a command prompt; you'd do: PATH=%PATH%;c:\OpenSSL\bin
Ok, I've thrashed around with my environment for more time than I care to admit and I cannot yet get python to recognize openssl.

I've edited my path and restarted, so when I go into a DOS prompt, I see:
C:\KINDLE23>path
PATH=C:\OPENSSL;C:\OPENSSL\BIN;C:\PYTHON26;C:\PROG RA~1\WI8DE7~1\TOOLS\;C:\WINDOW
S\SYSTEM32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WBEM

I can type "python", and python launches find. I can type "openssl" and I get the openssl prompt. But when I run kindleupdatetool, it runs but always fails to load openssl. Instead, it gives this message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "kindle_update_tool.py", line 368, in <module>
make_bin("update_"+name, filelist, 2, kver, sign=sign, jailbreak=jailbreak)
File "kindle_update_tool.py", line 212, in make_bin
create_sig(keyfile, name, tar)
File "kindle_update_tool.py", line 155, in create_sig
raise ValueError("Openssl failed")
ValueError: Openssl failed

I'm at my wits end now. Any pointers would be appreciated.
