That's what you would expect using easy_install. Distributions get installed into either a directory like that or a zipfile version of the directory. But, somewhat confusingly, it appears the module name is "serial". http://pyserial.sourceforge.net/shortintro.html#configuring-ports-later After installing, "import serial" works for me. I don't have a serial port on this machine to try anything further, though. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
