! (OS X, OS 9 or OS8 with CarbonLib installed) or both, depending on your
  configuration. By selecting custom install you can bypass these tests and
  install what you want.

  - Windows \r\n linefeeds are not supported and get turned into \n\n.

  What to install
***************
*** 170,187 ****
  ------------
  
! Two items are installed in the system folder: the interpreter shared
! libraries PythonCore and PythonCoreCarbon lives in the Extensions
! folder and the "Python 2.2c1 Preferences" file in the Python subfolder
  in the Preferences folder. All the rest of Python lives in the folder
  you installed in.
  
! On OSX the libraries are installed in /Library/CFMSupport. There is a
! nasty bug in OSX that is triggered by Python: if any orphaned aliases
! are left in /Library/CFMSupport your machine will start to behave very
! badly. 2.1 beta installers triggered this problem if you simply threw
! away your Python folder, so if you installed a 2.1beta you should
! clean out the aliases in /Library/CFMSupport too. The final 2.1 and
! 2.1.1 installers always copied the shared libraries on OSX, so it does
! not have the problem anymore.
  
  Things to see
--- 169,184 ----
  ------------
  
! Up to three items are installed in the system folder: the interpreter shared
! libraries PythonCore and PythonCoreCarbon live in the Extensions
! folder and the "Python 2.2 Preferences" file in the Python subfolder
  in the Preferences folder. All the rest of Python lives in the folder
  you installed in.
  
! On OSX the libraries are installed in /Library/CFMSupport. The ConfigurePython
! applets will complain if you have no right to create the libraries there
! (you need Admin privileges). This has one consequence: you will not be able to
! run applets unless they reside in the MacPython folder (such as the IDE or
! EditPythonPrefs). If you try to run an applet stored elsewhere you will
! get a "Cannot locate PythonCore" error message.
