Installation
Download a python distribution which include wxPython
At the time for this post, (Dec 2013), the installation of wxPython2.9-osx-cocoa-py2.7 made hickups and crashes.
This is reported here and here.
The problem is based on the wxPython version and 32/64 bit issues.
It is therefore strongly recommended to install the 32 bit python package distribution.
If one installs the "epd" enthought python distribution, this will include a working wxPython.
SIgn-up with preferably a university email to get the Academic License, and you can then download for free
https://www.enthought.com/repo/epd/installers/
Specifically download and install:
epd-7.3-2-macosx-i386.dmg
Special note about 64-bit Mac OSX
The macosx-x86_64 installer does not include wxPython, which a lot of ETS relies on. Even though ETS supports the use of PySide as a backend, things are much less stable under Qt. Therefore, if you want to use ETS, we recommned using the 32-bit EPD on Mac OSX.
Install brew as 'linux' package manager
You can read about brew here.
In short, it is like a package manager for mac, where you will be able to get linux programs to mac.
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go/install)"
