Thanks for all the info guys. I got myself confused because I thought
that python 3 was the default for Ubuntu 14.04, but it is just installed
by default. I realize now that the modules need to be installed in the
proper environment.
I know Pythoncard is not maintained any more. I have one program I wrote
using it that I use often so I wanted to see it worked on 14.04. It will
be a good learning experience to rewrite it for python 3 using something
else.
Regards, Jim
