Sound right? On the ipython web site for MacOS X it says to do the following after the install using python setup.py etc. in the extracted directories, python setup.py install_scripts --install-dir=/usr/local/bin Is that what you are suggesting with the pydistutils.cfg ? Sorry, if I'm dense on this, but I only partially grok the command line install. Thanks for any help. -- Lou Pecora (my views are my own) REMOVE THIS to email me.
