I am well aware that Windows users rarely have compilers available.
Perhaps neither of you realized that I was responding to Mark's
comment that, "I confess I don't understand how *nix people endure
having to compile code instead of having a binary install."

On Unix systems most of the time people never invoke a compiler
directly to install from source. Heck, they often don't need to
download directly, as "pip install <whatever>" takes care of all that
drudgery.
