Hi Luca,

Not so stupid question. It took me a bit to figure it out. To install  
Pythoncard first (if not done already). Extract the tarball and run (as  
root):

# python setup.py install

Pythoncard is then installed to  
/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/PythonCard/ (substitute "python2.4"  
for whatever version you have).

In the tools subdirectory you will find the various programs that  
constitute Pythoncard, for example:

$ cd /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/PythonCard/tools/resourceEditor
$ python resourceEditor.py

You can then either put the above into a short shell script and put that  
in your PATH, such as in ~/bin, or you can do:

(as root)
# chmod +x resourceEditor.py

(as normal user)
$ ln -s resourceEditor.py ~/bin/resourceEditor

Hope this helps.

Sincerely Jean
