Subj : Python Set Up Question

Hi all, 

I have Python installed on my system and it can be recognized from any
Windows/Dos directory.  

I set the set the following below per the .docs within mystic:

     SET PYTHONHOME=C:\PYTHON27
     SET PYTHONPATH=C:\PYTHON27\LIB
     SET PATH=%PYTHONHOME%;%PATH%


When I install "made for windows" .MPL scrips that also use .PY scripts, they
are NOT working.  The .MPL portion works fine, the .PY scipts do not.  

Below the above SET functions that Mystic recommends doing, it has the below
that I don't quite understand as I'm at the moment just setting up Python to
run scripts designed by others within the Mystic World..... I am signed up
for free courses to learn Python language that I'll start tomorrow however.

What below am have I not done that I should to get the two working well
together?

PYTHONHOME

     Change the location of the standard Python libraries. By default, the
     libraries are searched in prefix/lib/pythonversion and
     exec_prefix/lib/pythonversion, where prefix and exec_prefix are
     installation-dependent directories, both defaulting to /usr/local.

     When PYTHONHOME is set to a single directory, its value replaces both
     prefix and exec_prefix. To specify different values for these, set
     PYTHONHOME to prefix:exec_prefix.

     PYTHONPATH

     Augment the default search path for module files. The format is the same
     as the shell's PATH: one or more directory pathnames separated by
     os.pathsep (e.g. colons on Unix or semicolons on Windows). Non-existent
     directories are silently ignored.

     In addition to normal directories, individual PYTHONPATH entries may
     refer to zipfiles containing pure Python modules (in either source or
     compiled form). Extension modules cannot be imported from zipfiles.

     The default search path is installation dependent, but generally begins
     with prefix/lib/pythonversion (see PYTHONHOME above). It is always
     appended to PYTHONPATH.

     An additional directory will be inserted in the search path in front of
     PYTHONPATH as described above under Interface options. The search path
     can be manipulated from within a Python program as the variable sys.path



Any assistance would be much appreciated!
