With internal python, it would then work with the OOo-provided python. They would have to call OOo's python manually, as OOo wouldn't be in their PATH, so they'd run /path/to/OpenOffice.org.app/Contents/MacOS/python and they're ready to type "import uno" That script sets the needed environment variables (PYHONPATH, URE_BOOTSTRAP, etc) and starts the internal Python, like it would be the case on other operating systems. If the internal python should be run as-is, i.e. without the OOo-specific variables, then the user could also run path/to/OpenOffice.org.app/Contents/basis-link/program/OOoPython.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python2.6 >> Anyone a python-guru/deep into Apple's Framework stuff who can tell >> how to get a "import uno" work on Mac OSX >10.4 from outside OOo? Reading it again, I wasn't very clear/that statement is very misleading. What I really meant is: In case we stick with system-python, is there anyone willing to dig into getting it to run from outisde OOo? I.e. does anyone know a way on how to use python from outside OOo with the current version of OOo that uses system python. This is no problem on 10.4, as that comes with the used 2.3 version, but doesn't work (at least I couldn't manage) with 10.6 This won't be a problem with internal python. >> Anyone into python extensions and want to give internal python 2.6.1 a >> thorough test? >> Anyone for code-review? > > If we decide on a 'yes' for the main question, I can do so.
