The problem there isn't "on win32", it's ".4" :).  Unless I've just
missed the announcement PyScripter has not been updated to support
Python 3.4, and I haven't figured out a way to trick it into working.
However, PyScripter works fine with Python 3.3, and there were no
syntax changes between 3.3 and 3.4.  What I have found to work fairly
well is to use PyScripter with 3.3, then test your program from a
command prompt with 3.4.

For the record, all versions of CPython on Windows (not counting
anything relating to cygwin) are "on win32" regardless of the
bittedness of the processor or the interpreter.

Hope this helps,
