New submission from Jeff Rodman [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Change current introduction in 1.1
WAS:
Mac OS X 10.4 comes with Python 2.3 pre-installed by Apple. However, you are
encouraged to install the most recent version of Python from the Python website
(http://www.python.org). A ``universal binary'' build of Python 2.5, which runs
natively
on the Mac's new Intel and legacy PPC CPU's, is available there.
IS:
Mac OS X 10.5 comes with Python 2.5.1 pre-installed by Apple. If you wish, you
are
invited to install the most recent version (currently 2.5.2) of Python from the
Python website
(http://www.python.org). A current universal binary'' build of Python, which
runs natively
on the Mac's new Intel and legacy PPC CPU's, is available there.
And then, to line:
The Apple-provided build of Python is installed in
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework and /usr/bin/python, respectively.
You
should never modify or delete these, as they are Apple-controlled and are used
by Apple-
or third-party software.
ADD:
Remember that if you choose to install a newer Python version like this, you
will have two
different but functional Python installations on your computer, so it will be
important that
your paths and usages are consistent with what you want to do.
