Mark If you install using with a setup.py that uses distutils then one of the features is that any script whose first line begins '#!' and contains 'python' has that first line replaced by the current interpreter. So in this example if you install your code with: /usr/anim/menv/bin/pypix setup.py install #!/usr/bin/env python would be replaced by your desired #!/usr/anim/menv/bin/pypix. Of course for your current purposes using setup.py might be overkill. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The former it copied from my home account and is always the same - a bunch of useful scripts. The latter is per-host customisation and is largely symlinks to preferred versions of apps, apps installed out of the main paths, and host-specific wrapper scripts.

The pypix is a company-wide maintained python, but ln -s python pypix on my local Mac laptop python install makes the env work quite nicely. The ~/bin and ~/bin-local is a great idea too... I've symlinked to my dropbox account for bonus convenience. thanks!!! Mark -- Mark Harrison Pixar Animation Studios -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
