Great! Good to hear you're making progress. Welcome to the PhD club, Thomas & myself are ( or are about to ) working on PhD's ourselves.

Scons *definitely* is a _very_ nice build system, but blaim the current status of the script, not Scons. ( note to self: make sure this is added to a README ) Go for setup.py build ( this is what I use on OSX and its flawless, though perhaps you have to tweak a couple of paths @enviroment.py ) Cheers, -jelle _______________________________________________ Pythonocc-users mailing list Pythonocc-users@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/pythonocc-users
