[vtkusers] no module named vtk

[Aron Wahlberg]

Thanks for answering.

Well, I don't seem to have vtkpython either :S

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from vtkpython import *
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named vtkpython
>>> 
Aron-Wahlbergs-MacBook-Pro:~ aron$ which vtkpython
Aron-Wahlbergs-MacBook-Pro:~ aron$ locate vtkpython
Aron-Wahlbergs-MacBook-Pro:~ aron$ vtkpython
-bash: vtkpython: command not found
Aron-Wahlbergs-MacBook-Pro:~ aron$
