.IP PYTHONHOME | ||
Change the location of the standard Python libraries. By default, the | ||
libraries are searched in <prefix>/lib/python<version> and | ||
<exec_prefix>/lib/python<version>, where <prefix> and <exec_prefix> | ||
are installation-dependent directories, both defaulting to | ||
/usr/local. When $PYTHONHOME is set to a single directory, its value | ||
replaces both <prefix> and <exec_prefix>. To specify different values | ||
for these, set $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>:<exec_prefix>. | ||
.IP PYTHONPATH | ||
Augments the default search path for module files. | ||
The format is the same as the shell's $PATH: one or more directory | ||
pathnames separated by colons. | ||
Non-existant directories are silently ignored. | ||
The default search path is installation dependent, but always begins | ||
