I agree here. Better labeling of the .dmg  would indeed help, I think.

And thanks to everyone for all of the responses.  I joined the mailing
list, posted my question, and then went back to dissertation writing
for a few days.  When I looked up, there were 18 answers.

I'll try getting python from python.org and/or building it all from scratch.


Thanks again,
