Now just to find an encrypted epub file to test this out (although after getting the key, there should be no problems). Once more cabby, thanks. |

Short version: install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package. It should work fine then. Long version: the person who compiled the Windows version of PyCrypto doesn't know much about Visual Studio. Most C++ applications need the runtime library. By default, Visual Studio sets the runtime library flags to "/MD" and "/MDd", depending on whether you're compiling the release or debug build. The "D" in the flag stands for DLL, which means that the application should link to the DLL version of the runtime. It is up to the developer to distribute those DLLs with his application. The person who compiled the win PyCrypt version apparently doesn't know that. It's a classic rookie mistake... If one didn't want to use the DLL version of the runtime, one could change those flags to "/MT" and "/MTd", and the runtime gets compiled in with the EXE. No need to distribute the DLLs. I have those DLLs on my system since I have Visual Studio 2008 (they come bundled in). A person without VS 2008 needs to install the redistributable package to get them. If they don't, they get the nice crashing message. Last edited by Valloric; 02-19-2009 at 01:27 PM. Reason: typo |

Whoever compiled the 2.5 version did it correctly. And the scripts do work with Python 2.5.4. So for now I'll stick with that. But thank you for solving the problem with the 2.6 version.

You can read it on the Voidspace webpage: "The Python 2.6 binary is built with Visual Studio 2008." They switched compilers for the 2.6 version. |

Can you tell me which book you used from BOB. I've tried several but they are downloading as .pdf's and don't seem to work.
cheers |

OK - I finally get it thanks to Brian. It must be truly ePub and unfortunately the public library books that I've tried so far download as pdf. At least we know that with this tool and Calibre, purchased epub books will work on both the iPod Phone and Touch and the Kindle.
Thanks I love Cabbages and Brian (AnemicOak). This is one step forward. cheers |

For PDF this has been out there for years. Don't know if it works or not (requires Acrobat 6).

Anyway, the 2.6 version works fine if you download and install the free redistributable I linked to. |
