I have been worried that I wouldn't be able to do Vpython on my machine, because I had to install 64-bit Python for another package that I needed for work. My son found a good workaround for me: arch -i386 python 4p90.py (on some machines, arch -32 python 4p90.py ) This forces the 32-bit architecture, even though the 64-bit Python is installed. (I don't use IDLE or the Vpython version of IDLE, so I don't know whether they work this way or not.) It might be worthwhile for other people dealing with the 32-bit Python on the Mac problem to try playing with this. If it works generally, it might be worth adding to the documentation.
