[Visualpython-users] New X11

[Mark H. <mha...@st...>]

Earlier someone noted that after updating X11, Vpython didn't work. Thank=
s
for the heads-up... it prevented me from updating X11.

Out of curiosity, I decided to do a fresh install on my daughter's brand
new MacBook.  I loaded Developer Tools and X11 using the OS X disk (this
included the newest version of X11). I then followed the expert
instructions for loading Vpython to the letter.

The result: "No such file or directory" when I try to start vpython.

I should note that the Vpython install on my own MacBook Pro this summer
did not go perfectly smoothly... for some unknown (to me) reason, in bash
I get a permission denied message. I can only start Vpython in tcsh. I
checked the permissions, and all appears in order.

I am not a very sophisticated user... I don't know alot of Unix commands,
I don't see problems such as the above as an "interesting" challenge. Yet=
,
I DO know how to follow directions and I'm not freaked out by the command
line (I am of a certain age... "in the beginning there was the command
line").  So not being able to install Vpython from the current instructio=
n
set is a real problem.
