Thread: [Visualpython-users] Experimental PPC build of VPython 5.32 Available....

Hi Folks,

Well... with Bruce's hints I was able to build a PPC Mac version of  
VPython 5.32. I only have one PPC machine running OS X 10.5.8. If  
you're interested in testing I'd appreciate it! You can get the build  
at:

http://www.spvi.net/VPython-PPC/Welcome.html

Let me know if you try this and have any trouble... or if you find it  
works!

thanks,
-steve

I've put a link to this on the vpython.org Mac download page.

Thanks very much for doing this, Steve!

Steve,

Thank you very much for accomplishing that.  I just downloaded and  
installed both python 2.6.4 and your vpython 5.32 installer and ran  
the half-dozen or so programs I have written.  No problems arose.

G4, 10.5.8

FYI... there is a new build of the PPC installer for 5.32 that has  
been reported to work on Mac OS X "Tiger" 10.4.

If you tried the old PPC 5.32 installer and found it didn't work on  
10.4 (it didn't) please give this one a try!
