This module wraps the aubio library for python using the numpy module.
See the [Python/C API Reference
-Manual](http://docs.python.org/c-api/index.html) and the [Numpy/C API
+Manual] (http://docs.python.org/c-api/index.html) and the [Numpy/C API
Reference](http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/reference/c-api.html)
Compiling python aubio on Mac OS X
----------------------------------
-Note: the following URLs to download from are given as examples only, you
-should check the corresponding pages for newer versions
+You should now be able to build the aubio python module out of the box on a
+recent version of OS X (10.8.x). Make sure the variables are correct in the
+file `build_osx` before running it:
-Download and install python 2.7 from [python.org](http://www.python.org/)
+ $ ./build_osx
- $ curl -O http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.3/python-2.7.3-macosx10.6.dmg
- $ open python-2.7.3-macosx10.6.dmg
- # follow the instructions
+Additionally, you can fetch tools such [matplotlib](http://matplotlib.org/) to
+use the demo scripts. One easy way to do it is to fetch the fully fledged
+[Scipy superpack](http://fonnesbeck.github.com/ScipySuperpack/)
-Download and install [setuptools](http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools)
-
- $ curl -O http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.7/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.7.egg
- $ ${SUDO} sh setuptools-0.6c9-py2.4.egg
-
-Download and install [pip](http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/installing.html)
-
- $ curl -O https://raw.github.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py
- $ ${SUDO} python get-pip.py
-
-Download and install [matplotlib](http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/)
-
- $ pip install matplotlib
-
-Alternatively, you can fetch the fully fledged [Scipy
-superpack](http://fonnesbeck.github.com/ScipySuperpack/)
-
$ curl -O https://raw.github.com/fonnesbeck/ScipySuperpack/master/install_superpack.sh
$ sh install_superpack.sh
-
-You should now be able to build the new python module. make sure the
-variables are correct in the file `build_osx` before running it:
-
- $ ./build_osx
