I wanted to run a python module across a file and tried just double clicking the script, which thanks to Bob's build (I guess) would have worked fine if I had not used a .py file and had not had an arg.  Anyway it showed me enough to accomplish what I wanted.  I did not want to create a standalone

[Pythonmac-SIG] Note that the 2.4 installer doesn't install pydoc into /usr/local/bin

2005-05-23 Thread Kenneth McDonald
This one caused me a bit of confusion, and I thought I'd mention it so that others would not about it if it bit them. Basically, I installed 2.4 and xattr. However, 'pydoc xattr' couldn't document the xattr module, even though python could load it. I finally figured out that the 2.4 version of pydo

[Pythonmac-SIG] Crossplatform UI libraries best supported on the Mac?

2005-05-23 Thread Kenneth McDonald
This is only half a Mac question, I admit, but the Mac aspect will be a big influence... I'd like to pick a crossplatform UI library for which Python has bindings, to start doing some programming in. I've used and liked Tk a lot in the past, but unfortunately it seems to be (1) way out popularity,

It's a little less trouble Les. I added the shbang to my scripts (with Tiger and/or Bob's new right setup the env is dropped) #!/usr/local/bin/python2.4 And changed my shell .profile to export PS1="\u \w \! \$" export PATH=~/PythonProjects/MyUtilities:$PATH #added

Hi Lee, It looks like you've got it pretty well figured out, but the one thing that I'd add is the question of whether there is any need to put these in a special directory. I put all my utilities in /usr/local/bin, which should be on your path for all sorts of reasons anyway. I also tend to
