Re: [PyMOL] installing other libraries with pymol python

Hi Jordan,

if you want to use MacPyMOL with other libraries then I recommend to use the "syspython" version that we offer (installer named MacPyMOL-v1.7.x.x-syspython.dmg). It simply does not bundle a Python distribution, but uses /usr/bin/python2.7 to run MacPyMOL.

Cheers,

Or more generally, how would one install third party libraries for use with pymol. If you don’t use pandas, I highly recommend it. It’s incredibly useful for manipulating data and it would be very handy to have with pymol scrips.
