This package will install Python $FULL_VERSION for Mac OS X
$MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET for the following architecture(s):
$ARCHITECTURES.

Installation requires approximately $INSTALL_SIZE MB of disk space,
ignore the message that it will take zero bytes.

You must install onto your current boot disk, even though the
installer does not enforce this, otherwise things will not work.

Python consists of the Python programming language interpreter, plus
a set of programs to allow easy access to it for Mac users including
an integrated development environment, IDLE, plus a set of pre-built
extension modules that open up specific Macintosh technologies to
Python programs.

                    **** IMPORTANT ****
                    
Before using IDLE or other programs using the tkinter graphical user
interface toolkit, visit http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/
for current information about supported and recommended versions
of Tcl/Tk for this version of Python and Mac OS X.

                    *******************

The installer puts applications, an "Update Shell Profile" command,
and a link to the optionally installed Python Documentation into the
"Python $VERSION" subfolder of the system Applications folder,
and puts the underlying machinery into the folder
$PYTHONFRAMEWORKINSTALLDIR. It can
optionally place links to the command-line tools in /usr/local/bin as
well. Double-click on the "Update Shell Profile" command to add the
"bin" directory inside the framework to your shell's search path.
