Doesn't matter how many languages it speaks if the install instructions
are incorrect it's not going to work. 

- Untar the archive in a directory where you have writing rights

$ tar -xzvf Pyvon_0.99.tgz

OK so far. 

- Type ./Pyvon in the console

$ ./Pyvon 

bash: ./Pyvon: is a directory

So this doesn't install Pyvon does it, it just untars the tarfile 
into a directory called Pyvon.  

Where does it put the Pyvonrc file that I've heard you mention in this 
group and what is the syntax for that file?  In the readme file it talks
of a pyvon.ini file?  I've had a look in my home directory and none of 
the files are there even after running Pyvon.

I don't want to discourage you from working on this but feel that these
basic issues need sorting out.  A real configure and install script would
be good.
