[Pythonmac-SIG] embedded C in MacPython

[Zhi Peng]

Hi! Chris 
 
Thanks a lot for your email. It is exactly what I would like to have. 
 
I use MacPython 2.3. But unfortunately, on my Mac 10.4 Tiger, they erased all *.py file and leave all *.pyc or *.pyd file. I even can not find include directory or headers directory on this new Mac. If MacPython is just same or similar to UNIX/LINUX python2.3, I should be confident on working on Mac. Maybe I need to download MacPython again and install them on the new Mac so that I could have all *.py file and head files. Actually all I need is "Python.h" file and python23.lib or python23.dylib currently. 
 
On *nix system, it normally is with C compiler such as gcc cc or workshop. What is the most often used c compiler on Mac ? 
 
Thanks

Yes. If you use distutils to built it, it should "just work", at least 
on OS-X. What problems are you having?

I haven't done this, but I'm sure others have.

What version of "MacPython" are you using?

By the way, for the most part, Python is just Python on OS-X, it's 
hardly any different than Python on other *nix platforms, except it's 
packaged up in a Framework.
