In case it matters, Python 2.5 on Tiger (from python.org) does not include the dynamically linked shared library. This is so whether one uses the installer provided or whether one compiles the framework build from source and is true even if one explicitly requests that the library be built and installed. I don't have Leopard to compare, but I believe it does include the library in Python just as the Apple provided python 2.3 provides it on Tiger. As I say, I don't know if this matters or not. - cfr > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
