Sorry to interrupt your (both) chat :D, but how do I compile pylucene
with MSVC7? Is the makefile in pylucene source works with nmake? I see
the makefile uses linux commands like find, rm, which wouldn't work in
normal cmd.exe without cygwin/gnuwin32/unxutils.

If pylucene can be compiled with MSVC7 that'd be great since I'm
getting bored to alter my mingw installation to link with msvcrt71
each time I need to compile a python extension :D

Also if you don't mind to explain, what is this shared option, I
couldn't find it (easily) on google? What's the difference with normal
python extension?

Thanks.
