More typing, but less magic... With the command line switch, +1. One problem with the "just install it" approach is that you often get Python from downstream packagers that make their own decisions about which additional scripts to include. There's also namespace collision issues in bin directories to deal with. So Ilya's suggestion avoids both of those problems. -Barry -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
