 I prefer the latest tarballs for general development. If I ever start to get really into the software I get the CVS or SVN.
 
-**Before beginning**, install XCode. XCode contains make, gcc, and other things you'll be needing when compiling from source.

 === Installing Python ===
 
- 1. Download and unpack latest stable python tarball
- 1. {{{./configure --prefix=/usr/local; make; make install}}}
- 1. Add {{{export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH}}} and {{{export MANPATH=/usr/local/man:$MANPATH}}} to {{{~/.profile}}}
- 1. Open a new terminal session
- 1. Type {{{python}}} and check that it is the version you just installed

 === Installing \PostgreSQL ===
 
- 1. Create a new user, _postgres_ in the Accounts Pane of the Mac OS X System Preferences
- 1. Download and unpack latest stable \PostgreSQL tarball
- 1. `./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql; make; sudo make install`
- 1. Add `export PATH=/usr/local/pgsql/bin:$PATH` and `export MANPATH=/usr/local/pgsql/man:$MANPATH` to `~/.profile`
- 1. Add `export PGDATA=/usr/local/pgsql/data` to `~/.profile` **NOTE: If this isn't set, _postgres_ will complain about a  missing conf file.** 
- 1. Open a new terminal session
- 1. Type `psql -V` and check that it is the version you just installed
- 1. Create a data directory: `sudo mkdir $PGDATA`
- 1. Change ownership to postgres: `sudo chown postgres:postgres $PGDATA`
- 1. Create the initial data area: `sudo -u postgres initdb -D $PGDATA` **NOTE: `sudo` means _substitute user and do_, and in this case with the initial `-u` parameter, we are telling sudo to run the command as _postgres_ rather than _root_.**
- 1. To run the database (will not be automatically started on boot): `sudo -u postgres pg_ctl start`
- 1. Open a new window, and type `sudo -u postgres createdb test`. If it says `CREATE DATABASE`, it's working. :)
