I have no Window menu, and no Dialogs menu.  Therefore I guess I should 
conclude that the distribution of dia at http://dia-installer.de does not come 
with Python support, and I should build from sources.

Anyone know if the macports or fink version comes with Python support?  That 
would, of course, be the easiest way to build from sources, if it has the 
scripting support.

Thanks!

Nathan

Hi Nathan,
you should find the python console in diagram's window menu "Dialogs -> Python 
console"  (to see that, Dia must be compiled with python support, but i can't 
tell you how to check that in a Mac world, sorry)

Have a look at this post

 for info about python API and dia python scripting

Hello, Dia list.

I just downloaded Dia for Mac from http://dia-installer.de/ and it launches and 
runs fine, since I have X installed.  However, I cannot see any menu items 
related to Python scripting, despite how much I can find about it on the web.  
I looked under File > Plugins, but there was no Python plugin listed.  I feel 
rather stupid that I can't even take the first step towards scripting Dia...but 
I can't even find any UI elements related to scripting!  Can anyone help me out 
or point me to the tutorial that I couldn't seem to find by Googling?  Thanks!
