installation problems on mac powerpc

[python27email]

interested in nltk installation on a mac osx 10.4.9

however when try to install latest python

get error cannot access subprocesses and won't even open idle
got nltk to open through a terminal but entire process I fear is
fragmented


is there a better walk through of installation than what I've found on
sourceforge?

Any suggestions?

rebooting has resolved the above for now

same with matplotlib?
what is python launcher and should I make it my default python scripts
