The primary issue for 10.9 was an incompatible change in the system libedit's readline compatibility API which could cause Pythons built on earlier versions of OS X to crash on 10.9 when used interactively. Fixed in the current 2.7.6 and 3.3.4 and 3.4.0rc python.org installers. Also, if you are going to use IDLE or Tkinter with a python.org Python, make sure you have the latest ActiveTcl 8.5.15.0 (actually .1) installed, if possible. http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/ -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
