Thank you Kevin (& all who replied). The next question (which I think will be my last until I've read more info) is: Once installed, how will I be able to distinguish between the OSX Apple-supplied, preinstalled version and the newly installed version that I downloaded from Python.org? Currently,

ActivePython or Python from Python.org

Hi everyone. I noticed that ActiveState has their own variation of Python and was curious if there's a benefit to choosing their version over the version offered via Python.org. Could someone lend some insight? Thanks, Rey... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I have a Python web client that uses urllib2. It is easy enough to add my own HTTP headers to the outgoing requests. I just create a dictionary of the headers I want to add, and pass it to the Request initializer. These custom headers are not all that gets sent. urllib2 attaches headers also. Y
