In the former case, you should find the newer python2.7 at /usr/local/bin/python2.7. Also, the installer by default should have added the framework bin directory to your shell PATH. Try opening a new terminal window and typing python2.7. In any case, as suggested: which python should tell you the path to the python you are invoking. It doesn't appear to be an Apple-supplied one or a python.org one, BTW. -- Ned Deily, nad@acm.org
