I would like to add that I used to keep a unix/X11 build of python on my Mac in parallel with a framework build so I could test a GUI app on X11 and Aqua. (I build the stuff myself instead of using fink; I never could get comfortable with fink). In any case, I eventually gave up. Installing packages that had a GUI interface took extra work -- for the X11 python I had to temporarily hide the Aqua GUI stuff. Eventually I gave up and ditched the X11 version. But if you *only* use fink then this comment is irrelevant--they've handled it for you. >>I tried wxpython2.6 first, but figure windows never got drawn on my >>display, even when I used pythonw. > >wxPython 2.6.3, as distributed on the wxPython site and pythonmac, >should work with MPL.
