<div dir="ltr">I see. It would be nice if this was mentioned in the notes for either of Python or pip. I am not a Python programmer and have never used it before, and I just installed it to use AWS CLI tools. Would have saved me some time if there was a line or two in the notes about adding the directory to the path.<div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Mon, Jul 13, 2015 at 10:28 PM Brandon Allbery <<a href="mailto:allbery.b@gmail.com">allbery.b@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jul 13, 2015 at 7:36 AM, Behrang Saeedzadeh <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:behrangsa@gmail.com" target="_blank">behrangsa@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><font color="#000000" face="verdana, arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:12px;line-height:normal">Should I just add </span></font><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana,arial,sans-serif;font-size:12px;line-height:normal">/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin to the PATH, or is there a better alternative available?</span></blockquote></div><br></div></div><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra">In short, yes (or symlink it into somewhere on $PATH).</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">AWS's instructions assume you are using Apple's Python.
