! On Mac OS, you have to go through a bit more effort to supply
! command-line arguments to the setup script:
! \begin{itemize}
! \item hit option-double-click on the script's icon (or option-drop it
! onto the Python interpreter's icon)
! \item press the ``Set unix-style command line'' button
! \item set the ``Keep stdio window open on termination'' if you're
! interested in seeing the output of the setup script (which is usually
! voluminous and often useful)
! \item when the command-line dialog pops up, enter ``install'' (you
! can, of course, enter any Distutils command-line as described in this
! document or in \citetitle[../dist/dist.html]{Distributing Python
! Modules}: just leave off the initial \code{python setup.py} and
! you'll be fine)
