I personally use .bashrc in my home directory (I had to create it I think). There are other possibilities maybe. Hope it helps.

I did remove the symlinks in /usr/bin and created new ones to point to 2.4. This is NOT a big deal.. If stuff barfs create the old links again. I am new to python and Mac but am a linux admin so I have some skills there. But for the life of me I can not get the Documentation to install using the Package Manager. Any ideas? It just acts like something is happening but nothing really does.. Be nice if I could get some kind of error back ;) I installed 2.4 and the fix.

I've been using "#!/usr/bin/env python" to start the python interpreter from cgi scripts. I can get 2.4.1 up and running in the interpreter just fine using /usr/local/bin/python, but I've been unsuccessful in calling it from cgi scripts using various combinations of #!/usr/local/bin/python... any suggestions? thanks. hello.

From the command line python -v still says I'm running 2.3.5 build from apple. Suggestions? 10.4.1 and ran the installer.

Suggestions?
