<http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall> Of particular importance is the section on "custom installation locations": <http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall#custom-installation-locations> Before starting you probably want to edit the ~/.pydistutils.cfg file to specify a different location for installing scripts (for example, /usr/local/bin). If you just want to install the packages for yourself, then check out the Mac OS X "User" installation section. Then download and run ez_setup.py, which bootstraps setuptools, and run "easy_install IPython". This will work with many simple packages, and some complex ones too. -- Nicholas Riley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | <http://www.uiuc.edu/ph/www/njriley> _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
