#!/usr/bin/env python is actually saying to invoke the "env" command (you can type 'man env' to see what that command's all about). This particular usage of env does not actually do anything of value, as far as I can see. You could have gotten the equivalent working with your python of choice by doing this: #!/usr/bin/env /usr/local/bin/python Kevin _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
