Hi -
Our group has not yet moved to 8.6 but we would like to use the idl-python bridge package with 8.5.1 (rhel6 , anaconda 2.7) Apparently the setup.py script now in 8.6 does a number of things , but I cannot find setup instructions for 8.5.1 . Or, if anyone knows what needs to be done for the setup , is it more than appending PATH,PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME ?
Thanks
Alex

Hi Alex,
The documentation for the Python Bridge should have install instructions for all three platforms. But in general, you are correct, you should be able to set PATH, PYTHONPATH, and (possibly) PYTHONHOME and you should be good to go.
Cheers,
Chris
