Homebrew install notes

==> Caveats
Homebrew's Python framework
  /usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.4/Frameworks/Python.framework

Python demo
  /usr/local/share/python/Extras

Distribute and Pip have been installed. To update them
  pip install --upgrade distribute
  pip install --upgrade pip

To symlink "Idle" and the "Python Launcher" to ~/Applications
  `brew linkapps`

You can install Python packages with (the outdated easy_install or)
  `pip install <your_favorite_package>`

They will install into the site-package directory
  /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages

Executable python scripts will be put in:
  /usr/local/share/python
so you may want to put "/usr/local/share/python" in your PATH, too.

See: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/Homebrew-and-Python
==> Summary
  /usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.4: 5195 files, 80M, built in 2.6 minutes
