Mac Os X 10.2 Jaguar Dmg Download

The instructions below are for installing PythonCard on Mac Bone 10.2 (Jaguar). If you lot are using Mac Bone 10.3 (Panther), and so please utilise these instructions instead.

Installing PythonCard on your organisation requires the post-obit steps:

Download Python from the python.org site.
Download wxPython from the wxPython.org site.
Download PythonCard from the PythonCard site.
Install Python
Install wxPython
Install PythonCard
Confirm the installation works

Downloading Python

If you lot're running Jaguar then you already take Python two.ii installed on your arrangement, but this isn't usable with wxPython, and then you'll still need to download a "framework" build of Python.

Click on this MacPython-OSX-2.iii-1.dmg link to begin the download. Almost Mac OS Ten browsers will relieve the file to your desktop.

Downloading wxPython

PythonCard relies on the wxPython bundle. Click on this wxPythonOSX-2.five.2.8-jaguar-Py2.3.dmg link to begin the download. Once more, most Mac OS X browsers will relieve the file to your desktop.

Downloading PythonCard

The latest version of PythonCard is always available via the PythonCard download page. Click on this PythonCard-0.8.2.tar.gz link to begin the download. Again, well-nigh Mac Os X browsers will salve the file to your desktop.

Installing Python

Python arrives at your arrangement as an installable deejay prototype. All you have to do is double-click on the file you lot downloaded (it's called MacPython-OSX-2.3-i.dmg), then double-click the MacPython-OSX.pkg icon and follow the instructions in the installation sorcerer. The installer volition create a new directory /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/ii.iii/ to contain the Python executables, documentation, tools, and standard libraries.

Installing wxPython

wxPython also comes as an installable disk image. Just double-click on the file you downloaded (it's called wxPythonOSX-two.v.2.eight-jaguar-Py2.3.dmg), then double-click the wxPythonOSX-jaguar.pkg icon and follow the instructions. wxPython volition be installed into /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/site-packages/.

I recommend creating a wxPython folder in your Applications folder and copying the Apps, Docs, Samples, and README 1st.txt files to the wxPython folder.

Installing PythonCard

The PythonCard-0.eight.two.tar.gz file you downloaded should automatically be decompressed by Stuffit; if the file isn't already decompressed, then double-click the PythonCard-0.8.ii.tar.gz file. You should now have a PythonCard-0.eight directory on your desktop. Open the Last application and do a cd to that directory and then run the setup.py script using the 2.three Python you merely installed. The sudo command will prompt you for your countersign.

[mymachine:~] bob% cd ~/Desktop/PythonCard-0.8
[mymachine:~/Desktop/PythonCard-0.8] bob% sudo /usr/local/bin/python setup.py install

By default, the PythonCard framework will exist installed into /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/site-packages/PythonCard. You'll probably want to make an alias to this directory to keep on your desktop or home folder to brand information technology easier to get to the PythonCard tools and samples.

Confirming Installation

It is important that y'all use the right version of Python to run wxPython and PythonCard scripts. Open the Terminal and then endeavour running the Python that yous merely installed. Type Ctrl+D to exit the Python interpreter.

[mymachine:~] bob% /usr/local/bin/pythonw
Python two.iii (#2, Jul xxx 2003, 11:45:28)
[GCC three.ane 20020420 (prerelease)] on darwin
Type "aid", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more data.
>>> ^D

Apple's Jaguar build of Python was not overwritten when you did the installation and is withal available as /usr/bin/python. Since by default your PATH environment variable does non contain the /usr/local/bin directory, y'all can still run Apple'due south Python equally shown below.

[mymachine:~] bob% python
Python two.two (#1, 07/fourteen/02, 23:25:09)
[GCC Apple tree cpp-precomp half dozen.14] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> ^D
[mymachine:~] bob% which python
/usr/bin/python

But again, remember that wxPython and PythonCard scripts will not work with that version, so it is important when working in the Final to ever use /usr/local/bin/pythonw.

Configuring PythonLauncher

The default install leaves .py and .pyw files associated with the Python IDE rather than PythonLauncher which is the app used to run Python scripts from the Finder.

If you select a .py file you can choose Go Info from the File menu and then modify the files to open with PythonLauncher instead of the IDE if you desire to exist able to double-click a file and take it run. Repeat the process for .pyw files. Alternatively, you tin can hold down the control key and when yous click on a .py file then y'all can select PythonLauncher from the Open With menu detail.

Acid Examination

OK, now comes the acid test. Open the binder chosen "minimal" in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.three/lib/python2.3/site-packages/PythonCard/samples. Find the icon labeled minimal.py and double-click information technology. In a few moments (afterwards an operating organisation panel window has appeared), a small window like the one shown in Figure one will appear. This indicates that your installation was successful and everything is working. Shut the minimal application in the usual style and proceed with the Walk-Through.

If for some reason this test fails, go back over these instructions carefully. In detail, make sure that wxPython and PythonCard both announced in the site-packages folder in Python's Lib binder.

If everything seems OK and you notwithstanding tin can't get minimal.py to launch, mail service a bulletin to the PythonCard Users Mailing List. (If you aren't notwithstanding a member, visit the list management page and join.)
