Re: [Pydev-users] Help please: Python, Mac, Eclipse, PyDev

[Eiko F. <to...@gm...>]

I did edit the links in the forum, somehow they got cut.

The direct link to the thread is:
http://old.nabble.com/Help-please%3A-Python%2C-Mac%2C-Eclipse%2C-PyDev-td32236580.html

I hope the screenshot will provide enough help to help me ;)

Thanks!
Eiko
