Hmmm. Maybe all you need do is make sure /usr/local/bin comes before
/usr/bin on your path? Then maybe Komodo and everything else will

This is precisely the area which seems a bit tricky on the Mac right
now. It seems the system retains many versions of $PATH, depending on
what is asking. Modifying things like ~/.bash_profile change the path
for the bash sessions, but not universally. Things like ~/.bashrc and
~/.profile don't ever seem to get run, while /etc/.profile do, but
they don't like to be modified. I'm not sure if I should force them.
Eventually, I got around to modifying the ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist
which seems to modify the $PATH globally (at least Komodo now sees it
properly) but the wx installer still goes to the wrong place.
Having been a Mac user for years, I'm not much of a Unix guru either.
I'm trying to pick it up, but the information regarding how this all
works in OSX is scattered, and in many cases, just wrong.
I've joined the MacPython list (again). I had been on it a couple of
years ago, when I first tried Python, but dropped out of that attempt
at Python because I really wanted to work in a nice IDE and under OSX
- Komodo for OSX didn't exist at the time. We'll see if they can shed
some light.
Again, thanks for the input.
