Good question. Works fine for me on MacOSX 10.3 w/ XEmacs 21.4.15,
python-mode 4.75 and Python built from CVS. Can you give some details of
your environment?

Rex> interpreter-mode-alist))
Rex> Does that have something to do with it?
I doubt it. What's the value of interpreter-mode-alist? I have
'("python" . python-mode)
in my list by default (as a side-effect of running python-mode).
Rex> Do I have to set my load-path to my python interpreter?
No. That's how Emacs finds Emacs Lisp files to load. Make sure the
"python" command resides in a directory on your PATH.
