Further googling led me to some source code that used wx (http:// www.wxpython.org) to get joystick input. As wx is installed by default in Mac OS X 10.5, this seems almost too easy...
import wx app = wx.PySimpleApp() j=wx.Joystick() Darn, it looks like wx.Joystick objects only support 1 digital joystick, whereas my gamepad has 2 analog joysticks. I can switch my gamepad's analog mode off, but that likely reduces the resolution and I still don't have the use of the second joystick. Well, at least the buttons work.
