there was a way to do it on Linux... but Windows looks like there's no way to get zbar to work with Python 2.7

Hi all, I've just started using paper wallets to give BTC to family & friends. I'd really like a Bitcoin client that supports QR code scans. I was delighted to see that Electrum supports this as a plugin, but I haven't been able to get it working under Windows 7. I went to http://zbar.sourceforge.net/download.html and grabbed the 0.10 windows installer. It installs and works, but the Electrum plugin option remains grey and unavailable.

Does the QR scans plugin work under Windows 7, and if so, how do I make it available?

Thanks,
~LU
