-    <p>Check if you already have an adequate version of Python installed by running <cite>python -V</cite>.  Python v2.5 is best.  Python v2.4 (v2.4.2 or greater) or Python v2.6 should also work, although Tahoe isn't as well-tested on them as it is on Python v2.5.  Python v3 does not work. If you don't have one of these versions of Python installed, then follow the instructions on <a href="http://python.org/download/">the Python download page</a> to download and install Python v2.5.

Python v2.4 (v2.4.2 or greater) or Python v2.6 should also work, although Tahoe isn't as well-tested on them as it is on Python v2.5. If you use Python v2.6 on Windows you may need to compile your own extension modules using a Microsoft compiler -- if you use Python v2.5 on Windows you will not need to do that.
