[Eric] Installation of Eric on a windows 10 with AMD64

[Detlev Offenbach]

Hello Colin,

the eric mailing list is the right place to ask.

The spell checking is provided by pyenchant and relies upon installed dictionaries. Please 
see pyenchant/enchant for details.

The Help issue is caused by the PyQt5 wheel, which does not include the Qt tools 
anymore. Unfortunately Qt 5.7 does not ship with the QtWebKit library either. Therefore 
the built-in help browser of eric 6.1.x does not work anymore. This will change once eric 
6.2 is release (December?). In order to get the Qt Tools you should install Qt (see the Qt 
web site) and set the path to the executable directory on the Qt configuration page.
