That sounds like it would still be fragile unless the MacPython 
distribution is in a fixed location.  I think it's important that 
applets created on one system be usable on another system, even in the 
face of different volume names, user names, home directory locations, 
etc.  If the MacPython distribution goes into some place like /Library 
by default, then that may be sufficient.  Otherwise, I think we need to 
find a way to find things in "all the standard places" (whatever they 
may be).
