tsktsktsk... naughty Allan ;-)

man, I tell ya, those were some scary twenty minutes without that 
Python highlighting... phew! Thanks for the quick response!

for the future: could you please announce that kind of stuff here on 
this list? in this particular case I'd have just postponed updating the 
svn repos (I'm in the middle of a python project...)

strange: that's exactly what I did - and still no highlighting (or any

only after creating the symbolic link do I now have correct Python 
highlighting and the other bundles.

at any rate: that's how I'm gonna leave it for now!
