I've created three bat files based on the howto http://wiki.python.org/moin/Building_Python_with_the_free_MS_C_Toolkit

I figured out that the files may suite other developers. The files take care of most problems and makes building Python on Windows easier. Simply double click on build_env.bat to open a shell and type build.
