Installing IPython on Mac OS X 10.6.8

10 10 2011

If you work with python, you likely know Ipython which allow works with Python in a nice way. I’ve worked previously in ubuntu linux. Now that I need  work with this in Mac, I used the following commands to get it working.

sudo easy_install ipytho
sudo easy_install  readline

In my first attempt, I followed this post http://brianberliner.com/2008/04/18/ipython-on-mac-os-x-105-leopard/ of Brin Berliner but I got an compilation error, so I changed it to my commands and it works well.

Hi Alvaro,

I’m on Mac OSX 10.5.8. Do I run these commands from the terminal window to install ipython? Thanks.

Hi Crystal,
Yes, with my version, these commands works fine to me, but I can’t be sure if it will work in you version. Anyway, if you try it, tell us your experience.

Regards,
Álvaro
