I haven't installed Python 3.x on my machine--I'm using the Python 2.5.1 that comes with Mac OS X 10.5. So I'm guessing below--I might be wrong.
`which python` returns /usr/bin/python on my machine. And `ls -l /usr/bin/python` shows it's a symbolic link to /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/bin/python. `ls -l /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/` shows:
drwxr-xr-x 7 root wheel 238 Feb 21 2008 2.3 drwxr-xr-x 12 root wheel 408 Feb 15 21:47 2.5 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3 Feb 21 2008 Current -> 2.5
If Python 3.0.1 is installed in /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/ on your machine, you may just need to change the /usr/bin/python symbolic link to point to /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0/bin/python. (And you may also want to change the /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current symbolic link to point to /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.0.)

Hi list,
I started python and therefore I downloaded v3.0.1 as a dmg and installed it.
If I test the version in the terminal with
python -V
it returns
Python 2.5.1
The same is used within Textmate.
I thought the old one will be updated with the new version... How could I used the new version of python and where got it installed?
Thanks in advance Christian
