Okay, it works now. Thanks!
However, now I'd like to update (replace) the 2.2 version of Python
that Apple ships with Jaguar to 2.2.3. I'd like to check that this
would be the way to do it:
1) After downloading and unpacking Python-2.2.3.tgz I go into the top
level of the Python-2.2.3 directory and issue the following commands:
./configure --prefix /usr/lib --exec-prefix /usr/bin # I think this
matches Apple's default structure
2) Then type 'make'
3) Then type 'make test' # optional
4) Then type 'sudo make install'
Have I got it right? Thanks!
John
