On my system, it's in the current directory. It's called "python.exe", to avoid a name clash with the "Python" subdirectory. > I thought I'd be clever and try: > > buzzkill:cpython chris$ cat build/scripts-2.7/2to3 > #!/usr/local/bin/python2.7 > ... Presumable, it would be installed in /usr/local/bin if I'd tried "make install". > There is a python there, but it's a symlink put in place around a year ago. Same here. > So, where should I look for the built python? In the current directory: $ ./python.exe Python 2.7.3+ (2.7:8b181c75792f, Nov 9 2012, 11:26:59) [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> Hope this helps, -- HansM _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
