[Setup] DIY Plone Styles & Limi's tutorial Part 4

[unionhack]

I just got this to work after multiple attempts. The problem seemed to be
that windows still hasn't got used to spaces in file names. and so thought
that C:\Program was supposed to be a program....

Here's what I did (Windows XP 32):
move DIYPloneStyles folder to C:\
run cmd
cd C:\Program Files\Plone 3\Python
python C:\DIYPloneStyles\bin\generator.py --productname=MyTheme

A folder named MyTheme will now show up in C:\Program Files\Plone 3\Python.
Note: no extension used on "python", and "=" after "productname".

Hope this helps,
Iain
