Re: installation in mac os x
What happens if you work on the commandline (Terminal)? Python2.6 should be available from (out of my head) /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/python If that's working, it is successfully installed. Diez -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list If I work on the commandline, I have version 2.3, which works. But some of the commands in the tutorial don't work with that version, so I had to upgrade in order to do the tutorial. But I still can't do it, obviously.

The system Python (2.3) is in /usr/bin and that's probably first in your path, so when you simply type 'python' it finds /usr/bin/python. Python 2.6 might have installed itself in /usr/local/bin. Try invoking /usr/local/bin/python and see which one you get (if that works at all). If that's Python 2.6, then move /usr/local/bin ahead of usr/bin in your path and then you'll invoke Python 2.6 by just typing 'python' at the command line. If that doesn't work, hunt around in /Library/Frameworks as Diez suggested. Until we figure out whether or not you actually have 2.6 installed, it is difficult to suggest how to invoke it. Let us know what you find. bye Philip -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Hi Stefan, What's the Python launcher? What happens if you instead open a Terminal window (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) and type python? bye P -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
