Hi Has,

Thanks very much for your incredibly helpful and detailed info! :-) So if I'm understanding this correctly, it really only installs something in '/Library/Python/2.3/site-packages' (as well as an alias to it from '/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/site-packages'). I'll keep the documentation, etc. as you encouraged. > You can script Excel directly from Python via appscript which talks to > scriptable Mac apps via the same API as AppleScript:... Very cool! Thanks very much for sharing this. I'll definitely look into 'appscript'. > If you need more info just ask. Thanks again Has, for taking the time to share all this! I really appreciate it!
