I am on a shared host and can not change the symbolic link to Python2.4, it defaults to 2.3. I tried creating a sym link in the director I would be working on to 2.4, but it seems the the ‘global’ python interpreter under /usr/bin/python take presedence unless I run it as ./python.

    ln -s /usr/bin/python2.4 $HOME/bin/python export PATH='$HOME/bin:$PATH'
