[Mac OSX] TextWrangler "run" command not working properly

[Fabio]

Hi to all,
I have troubles with TextWrangler "run" command in the "shebang" (#!)
menu.
I am on MacOSX 10.6.7.
I have the "built-in" Python2.5 which comes installed by "mother Apple".
Then I installed Python2.6, and left 2.5 untouched (I was suggested to
leave it on the system, since "something might need it").

I ran the "Update Shell Profile.command", and now if I launch "python"
in the terminal it happily launches the 2.6 version.
Then I installed some libraries (scipy and matplotlib) on this newer 2.6
version.
They work, and everything is fine.

Then, I started to use TexWrangler, and I wanted to use the "shebang"
menu, and "run" command.
I have the "#! first line" pointing to the 2.6 version.
It works fine, as long as I don't import the libraries, in which case it
casts an error saying:

ImportError: No module named scipy

Maybe for some reason it points to the old 2.5 version.
But I might be wrong and the problem is another...

I copy here the first lines in the terminal window if i give the "run in
terminal" command

Any clue?

I'm not a python expert, but you might trying running 'print sys.path' inside your script and run that from TextWrangler to see where it's looking for modules.

Thank you for the reply Jon.
I saw the post in velocityreviews. Unfortunately it doesn't solve my
problem.

Cheers

Hello Fabio You have two versions of 2.6 on your system.

I have the "built-in" Python2.5 which comes installed by "mother Apple".

My OSX comes with 2.3, 2.5, and 2.6. These are under:

/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/
^^^^^^^^^

the ones you installed are under:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/

I can reproduce this problem on my system, because /usr/bin/python2.6 points to the system version. There is an easy solution:

#!/usr/bin/env python

will work, or,

#!/usr/local/bin/python

it's better to use the former, as it will work even as you change versions, etc... You should avoid using the shebang with a *specific* python version. just use #!/usr/bin/env python

Hi Ernst, Hi Brian,
Thank you for your answers!
With the "#!/usr/bin/env python" shebang line now it works!
I also had more insights running "print sys.path".

I still have to understand how comes, even with this "env trick"
TextWrangler isn't able to "find the libraries" if I run a script "in
TextWrangler". It only works fine if I use the "Run in Terminal" method.
Do you have more details about how TextWrangler manages these commands?
Which are its defalut locations?

Cheers,

Fabio
