The Dabo Runtime Engine for Windows is a self-contained environment that allows you to run Dabo on Windows without having to first install all of the requirements. It comes with its own version of Python 2.4.4, wxPython 2.6.3.3, and all of the other modules used in Dabo.

The Dabo Runtime Engine is designed for people who are curious about Dabo, but who don't want the bother of installing all the required modules just to see what Dabo can do. It doesn't change any Windows Registry settings, so it will not affect any existing applications on your machine.

This version installs several shortcuts that allow you to simple double-click an icon to run the desired file. Such shortcuts include the AppWizard, Class Designer and Report Designer, as well as several of the demo applications, including the new DaboDemo application, which allows you to see the demo and the code behind it. You can then modify that code to see how your changes affect the output.

The Dabo Runtime Engine comes in two versions: the regular version that just runs the applications, and the Console version that display a command line window containing the application output and debuggng information. They are otherwise identical.

You can download either version, along with all other things Dabo, from: the Dabo Download Page.
