I have already installed XCode...my compiel did not break the way the above did. I have grabbed the .egg file for simplejson 1.7.4 for Mac OS X 10.5 at the above link you provided - it has a simplejson dir, with the exact files that are in my simplejson directory for 1.8.1 (except none of my .py files have been compiled down to bytecode). I tried to add the directory "/<somepath>/simplejson" to my sys.path in the interpreter, hoping that the call to import simplejson would work if the dir was there, even though simplejson.py did not exist is that dir, but the encoder, decoder, jsonfilter and scanner .py files were all there. My problem is that the call "import simplejson" fails. How can I make that call work? Thanks in advance. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
