[Inkscape-devel] python extension scripts on win32?

Can anyone confirm if these work, or at least, are expected to work? I have created a path, and selected some of these effects, but I see no result. Is there a way to get some feedback? (like --verbose from the command line?)

BTW, I'm trying out Inkscape-0.41+0.42pre1-1.win32.exe on WinXP-SP1
