How to install pyEnchant w/ Anaconda on Windows?

[Largo84]

Just now setting up a new machine and I thought I would try the Anaconda route (Win10). So far so good, at least getting Leo to run. However, I can't figure out how to install the pyEnchant package. I intentionally chose the 32 bit version of Anaconda as I understood that's what pyEnchant needs.

From here I inferred that I should simply use in the command prompt:

`conda install -c dan_blanchard pyenchant=1.6.5`

I get:

`PackageNotFoundError: Package not found: Conda could not find '

Has anyone else successfully installed pyEnchant with Anaconda on Windows? If so, any suggestions on what to do? Thanks in advance.

conda search --platform win-32 -c dan_blanchard enchant
<nothing>
conda search --platform win-64 -c dan_blanchard enchant
<nothing>
conda search --platform linux-64 -c dan_blanchard enchant
Fetching package metadata ...........
pyenchant 1.6.5 py27_0 dan_blanchard
1.6.5 py26_0 dan_blanchard

So just replace Win-10 with a Linux system and you should be good to
go...

Sorry it wasn't a more helpful outcome. You can install it from here:
http://pythonhosted.org/pyenchant/download.html

I think PyEnchant is just a wrapper around a C(?) library, so a binary
install is needed and just not covered by conda for Win platforms.

Ha! Not really an option here (work computer, it's not even mine).

1. Install Virtualbox.

2. Install Linux.

3. Install Anaconda.

4. Install Leo.

At that point it just becomes another icon to another program.

The version at http://pythonhosted.org/pyenchant/download.html is 1.6.6

However a later win32.exe 1.6.8 version is available at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyenchant/1.6.8

Slow down! You can still use good old pip: pyEnchant has a Win32 wheel for Python 2.7+. I'm not sure of your specifics, but I have a Leo instance running on a work machine. Conda will play nice with the package, so don't worry about the environment getting changed irreversibly.
