I found part of the trouble with my first test of VPython for Mac was solved
by rebuilding the desktop. Now I can launch things by drag and drop onto
the PythonInterpreter.
Things still quit in a rather strange way (I need to study that some more),
though.
I also noticed a few of my programs that worked perfectly OK on a PC have
drawing 'glitches' in them on the iMac -- like a point or two that should be
in a reasonable place somehow flies off to infinity momentarily, then comes
back (I need to show you a picture).
One run terminated with the message "no mem for new parser," in the Python
IDE.out window. What does that mean?
And another problem I had earlier was trying to install OpenGL -- the
MacBinary version would not work. I had to use the .hqx version to get it
to decompress. Hope anybody else out there trying this suffers a little
less....
