Hi,
I am not sure how it works on Mac, but to expose a certain path to
Python I add it to my PYTHONPATH environment variable. I am not sure how
your different Python installations deal with the PYTHONPATH variable.
You can also add directories to your Python environment directly from a
script as follows:
from sys import path
path.append('/home/whateveruser/Documents/Python/CHIANTI_7.0_data/')
Hope this helps.
Regards,
David

I have a package which appears to have installed OK under Spyder. To
run, it needs an environment variable set up which I have in
my .profile file as
export XUVTOP=$HOME/Documents/Python/CHIANTI_7.0_data/
If I open the Terminal and type 'env' the variable shows properly.
However, when I open Spyder and select iPython, then type 'env'
the environment variable does not show. I presume this means Spyder's
Python (installed under Macports) is not seeing the .profile file?
Where do I add the information so that Spyder will find it?

(PS I seem to have three Pythons installed, Enthought, Apple and the
Macports install. I have deactivated the Enthought one in the OS
PATH.)
