it works for me. 

have a look at C:\Python23\lib\token.py and see if it
defines N_TOKENS. If it does, some other token.py shadows
the standard lib file.

I once had the same problem but only vaguely recall the
context. I think I installed some windows readline library
for python.

... and the offending module is token.py in the roundup package.

Ricardo, you must run C:\Python23\Scripts\roundup-demo.bat,
not C:\Python23\Lib\site-packages\roundup\demo.py

The docs need to be updated since "python demo.py" is the 
widely-advertised method of running the demo script.

"python demo.py" must be run from *source* distribution;
installation.txt does have a note on that.
