[Pythonmac-SIG] Pygame on OS X : Anyone had success?

[Pete Moore]

Bob!

You don't know how pleased that makes me, I started coding when I was 
about 11 years old, my interest was in doing graphicsy stuff, weird 
animations, simple games, etc. and I am looking forward to doing it 
again (with much more elegance, hopefully, thanks to Python) now I'm 30 
something!!

I'll be checking the Pygame site for updates,  SDL installed nicely as a 
packaged OS X framework...but after digging around in Distutils, I 
realised I was out of my depth as far as the issues that need resolving 
there.

Big thanks

Pete
