[Visualpython-users] continued difficulties in OS X

[Lenore H. <lh...@si...>]

Thank you Aaron, Martin, and Gary for your help.  Martin's suggestion  
to look at "fink describe visual-py23"  (which turns into "show  
package info" in Fink Commander) got me the piece I needed.  I have  
to manually start X11 and then use /sw/bin/vpython.

I'm using OS X 10.4.3, X11 1.1 - XFree86 4.4.0 with an Apple  
copyright as well, and visual-py23 2.1.9-6.

I do have to use /sw/bin/vpython rather than vpython as X11  
apparently doesn't have /sw/bin in the path and I haven't (yet) fixed  
that.

I'm working my way not through VPython_Intro.pdf.  I note that on the  
Mac, it is cmd-mouse to move the camera and option-mouse to zoom as  
opposed to shift and cmd respectively as noted in the file.

Thanks again.

Lenore
