Using hgk on Windows?

Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to use the hgk extension on
Windows. This is what I've done so far:

1. copy hgk.py into the site-packages directory of my python
installation
2. copy hgk into my scripts directory of my python installation
3. created a mercurial.ini in c:\Documents and Settings\Giuseppe
Bilotta

(BTW, it would be better to document somewhere on the wiki that under
Windows the global .hgrc is called mercurial.ini)

5. created hgk.cmd in my Windows directory (where hg.cmd is) setting
it to call the hgk in the scripts directory via wish

Now, when I run hg view what happens is that the wish script complains
about not being able to "exec hg tags" (no such file or directory).
Any suggestions on possible ways to make it work?
