Update:

I updated my .bash_profile from:
PATH="/Applications/Gmsh.app/Contents/MacOS/gmsh:${PATH}
to
PATH="/Applications/Gmsh.app/Contents/MacOS:${PATH}

Now when I go to the command line and enter:
"gmsh --version"
I receive:
"2.7.1"

Referring to the last website reference, when I run the python example 
circle.py in the command line:
"python examples/diffusion/circle.py"
Matplot opens up and everything seems to work fine.

Now, when I use Gmsh2D() or GmshImporter2D() in Enthought Canopy's Python, I 
still receive the error:
"EnvironmentError: Gmsh version must be >= 2.0."

Thank you,
Ryan
