36<h1>ASAP OS X (10.4) install</h1>
37This might or might not work with 10.3.
38<h2>Getting stuff</h2>
39<a href="http://pythonmac.org/packages">pythonmac.org</a> has
40a pre-packaged python and some modules.
41<br>
42From the section <b>Packages for Universal...</b>
43<br>get and install
44<ul>
45 <li>
46<a
47 href="http://pythonmac.org/packages/py24-fat/dmg/Universal-MacPython-2.4.3-2006-04-07.dmg">Python</a> </li>
48 <li>
49<a
50 href="http://pythonmac.org/packages/py24-fat/mpkg/matplotlib-0.87.2-py2.4-macosx10.4.mpkg.zip">matplotlib</a> </li>
51</ul>
52You also need to get numpy:
53<ul>
54 <li>
55<a
56 href="http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/numpy/numpy-0.9.6-py2.4-macosx10.4.dmg?download">numpy</a> </li>
57</ul>
58<br>
59Next get <a href="http://ipython.scipy.org/dist/ipython-0.7.2.tar.gz">ipython</a> and run:<br>
60<pre>
61sudo python setup.py install
62</pre>
63from within the ipython-0.7.2 directory.
64<br>
65Then
66<pre>
67sudo ln -s /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/bin/ipython /usr/bin/ipython
68</pre>
69<h2>Tweaking it</h2>
70Run the following in a terminal:<br>
71As 'root' or 'sudo' edit<br>
72<b>/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/mpl-data/matplotlibrc</b><br>
73In this file replace<br>
74<b> backend : WXAgg</b><br>
75with<br>
76<b> backend : TkAgg</b><br>
77
78<h2>Oh yeah there is ASAP, too</h2>
79Get
80<a
81href="ftp://ftp.atnf.csiro.au/pub/software/asap/asap_osx.tar.bz2">this</a>.
82Unpack and run.<br>
83<pre>
84tar jxvf asap_osx.tar.bz2
85sudo sh install.sh
86</pre>
87
88<h2>Run ASAP</h2>
89Now you should be able to run "asap". On first run you might have to
90answer a few set-up questions (ipython) and get a lot of font related
91errors (matplotlib). Ignore these.
