I have installed the newest iPython in Mac. However, it uses the Python verion 2.5.1.
I installed the Python 2.6.1 by MacPython package at here.
How can I make my iPython to use Python 2.6.1?
I am not sure where the MacPython package exactly installed the newest Python. The newest Python should somehow put the PATH so that iPyhon can use it.
[edit] after the first answer
I run the following command
$ln -s python python2.6 I cannot open python2.6 by
python
you should have a python, python2.5 and python2.6, is that correct? If you wan’t to use python2.6 system wide the symple solution would be to sym link (ln -s ..) python to python2.6 instead of python2.5
