Here is the error that I get when I try some of the
examples.
I went into the wordnet.py file and changed the path to
WordNet\\2.1, but the lexnames file isn't in the dict
directory.
I'm on an XP machine. Python 2.3, WordNet 2.1
>>> from wordnet import *
Traceback (most recent call last):

doesn't work on linux neither. I think PyWordNet is ment to
work for WordNet 2.0 only. lexnames seems to be quite
useless also.

I have the same problem:
[userid@host pywordnet-2.0.1]$ python
Python 2.4.2 (#1, Nov 20 2005, 13:03:38)
[GCC 3.3.1 (Mandrake Linux 9.2 3.3.1-2mdk)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more
information.

Is this package still maintained at all?

"Natural Language Toolkit has taken over the development of pywordnet. There is now a Python package, nltk_lite.wordnet, which incorporates pywordnet and which supports WordNet 2.1. It is included in NLTK Lite. "
