$ python minimal.py
python: can't open file 'minimal.py'

http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/macosx_tiger_installation.html
here s where i m tryng to do my best to start using python

and here is what they say in the site...

Open the folder called "minimal" in 
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/PythonCard/samples. 
Find the icon labeled minimal.py and double-click it. In a few moments 
(after an operating system console window has appeared), a small window like 
the one shown in Figure 2 will appear. This indicates that your installation 
was successful and everything is working. Close the minimal application in 
the usual way and proceed with the Walk-Through.

but....

$ ls 
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
README                  wx.pth                  wxversion.py

There s non pythoncard where it is supposed to be...

should i uninstall everything and start again?
or there s something easier to do?

thanks anyway for your help
