This is perhaps a basic question, but I haven't been able to find documentation on the subject elsewhere. Is there a way to install Visual so that it plays nice with an existing Python installation, preferably without building from source? (I'm on a mac, have my python set up the way I like it, and would really love to avoid VIDLE and all.)

You certainly don't have to use VIDLE if you don't wish to. As for installing Visual for some Python other than the one for which it has been built, no, I don't see any way around building Visual yourself from source. Of course if your "existing Python installation" happens to be the standard Python for the Mac recommended by python.org, you're all set; just use the Visual installer for the Mac. By the way, you might be interested to know that Visual was created at Carnegie Mellon in 2000 by David Scherer, then a sophomore in computer science.

I should add that if you use Fink on a Mac, Visual is one of the available packages. So that's another environment that offers Visual on a Mac without having to build from source.

Thanks for the suggestions, all. As far as I know, Macports doesn't have a version of visual - I gather from various trac comments that there was a lack of interest. Macports (which is where I get my Python) does have (almost?) all of visual's dependencies, so compiling by hand shouldn't be too much of a pain.

Hi, last spring I was in a similar situation and I wrote a portfile for visual myself, which I then submitted to the macports maintainers for inclusion in the official repository. It was rejected because of something unorthodox in it that the reviewer pointed out, and back then I did not really have time to fix this problem. However, it does work, but for a number of reasons only with python26 @2.6.4 (basically because the boost libraries were compiled against this version, and I did not recompile them for 2.6.6). Since I noticed that a port for py27-numpy appeared, I might get a shot at reworking the portfile so as to work with python27. For the moment, you might want to take a look at www.mmmi.sdu.dk/~mirko/macports/python/py26-visual.tgz, or directly add http://www.mmmi.sdu.dk/macports/ to your /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf. bye, Mirko Bordignon On Mon, Sep 6, 2010 at 7:23 PM, Alex Edelman <ale...@gm...> wrote: > Thanks for the suggestions, all. > > As far as I know, Macports doesn't have a version of visual - I gather > from various trac comments that there was a lack of interest.
