-This archive contains a new wxWindows DLL named wx[version]d.dll that
-should be copied to the windows system directory or some other

+This archive contains a new wxWindows DLL named wx[version]d.dll and a
+debugging version of the core wxPython module, wxc_d.pyd.  These
+should be put into your wxPython package directory.  Also included are
+the debuging version of Python, python_d.exe and python[VER]_d.dll
+which can be put wherever you like.
+
+In order to run the debugging version of wxPython sumply run you
+program with python_d.exe instead of python.exe.  This lets the
+debugging version sit side by side with the production version, with
+no need for swapping this around.  You will also need _d versions of
+any other extension modules you are using.  If you need _d's for any
+of the other standard Python extensions you can get them here, for 2.0
+at least:
