Installing Visualization Software on OS X
=========================================
The first thing we need to do is rebuild Python to use OSX's
frameworks, so that it can create graphical windows. To do this
first from the terminal do
::
cd $SAGE_ROOT/local/lib
rm libpng*.dylib
where ``$SAGE_ROOT`` is the directory of your
Sage install. Next from within Sage,
.. skip
::
sage: install_package('python-2.5.1-framework')
Next we will build vtk, this will take a while
.. skip
::
sage: install_package('vtk-5.0.3.p1')
Finally
.. skip
::
sage: install_package('MayaVi-1.5')
sage: install_package('scitools++')
sage: install_package('PyVTK-0.4.74')
