It does. Here's the print out of it:

You can see the PythonCard directory near the bottom.

There's PythonCard near the bottom.  Is there anything to the error 
which is that module PythonCard cannot be found and that PythonCard is 
really a directory?  Here's the original error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File 
"/Users/louispecora/Code/python/AddedPackagesfiles/PythonCard-0.8.1/tests/minimalTest.py", 
line 3, in ?
    from PythonCard import model, test
ImportError: No module named PythonCard
Exit 1

If you give up, that's my next step.  Thanks for taking the time to help.
