Description
I use this code:
\documentclass[11pt]{article}%
\usepackage{pythontex}
\usepackage{nopageno}
\begin{document}
\begin{pyconsole}
x = 987.27
x = x**2
\end{pyconsole}
The variable is $x=$ \pycon{x}
\end{document}
With the previous installation the output is:
It create some files:
and a file test1.pytxcode.
With the new installation, I have this output:
no folder pythontex-files-test10 but a file test10.pytxcode.
In the log from the compilation:
Package PythonTeX Warning: Non-existent console content on input line 8.
Package PythonTeX Warning: Missing autoprint content on input line 10.
The file test10.pytxcode contains this:
=>PYTHONTEX#pycon#default#default#0#console#####5#
x = 987.27
x = x**2
=>PYTHONTEX#pycon#default#default#1#i#####10#

The command python3 -m pip list in the terminal gives (among others):
Pygments 2.19.1
which python
python: aliased to python3
which python3
/usr/local/bin/python3
python --version
Python 3.13.3
pythontex
env: python: No such file or directory
Oh, strange... But:
which pythontex
/Library/TeX/texbin/pythontex
and I have all these files in TeXLive:
I use the IDE Texpad (renamed Texifier, https://www.texifier.com)
It use this script file:
#!/bin/bash
# Texpad build (.tpbuild) file to use PythonTeX within Texpad
# NB this is to demonstrate pythontex only, it would need alterations to support bibliographies, indices, etc.
pdflatex -synctex=1 "$TEXPAD_ROOTFILE"
pythontex "$TEXPAD_ROOTFILE_NO_EXT"
pdflatex -synctex=1 "$TEXPAD_ROOTFILE"
Edit
If I try in the terminal (on a new file test11.tex):
pdflatex test11.tex works (This is pdfTeX, Version 3.141592653-2.6-1.40.26 ... Output written on test11.pdf (1 page, 32850 bytes). Transcript written on test11.log.)
But:
pythontex test11
env: python: No such file or directory
Why? echo $PATH gives:
/usr/local/bin: ... :/Library/Apple/usr/bin:/Library/TeX/texbin
I tryed this:
/Library/TeX/texbin/pythontex test11
env: python: No such file or directory
What happens?
I found these informations in a previous Terminal window (before reinstallation of Python):
pythontex --version
env: python: No such file or directory
python --version
zsh: command not found: python
python3 --version
Python 3.13.2
pythontex
env: python: No such file or directory
which python
python not found
sudo ln -sf /usr/local/bin/python3 /usr/local/bin/python

pythontex
/usr/local/texlive/2024/texmf-dist/scripts/pythontex/pythontex3.py:549: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\s'
So after enter sudo ln -sf /usr/local/bin/python3 /usr/local/bin/python it was working? Perhaps, I don't recall.
But is it safe to use sudo ln -sf /usr/local/bin/python3 /usr/local/bin/python ? I have reinstalled Python because (perhaps after enter this last command), my Python IDE don't anymore warned me about syntax error in the editing mode.
I'm afraid the (very old) Python2 -> Python3 transition was a disaster, with the introducing of "python3" command. But anyway, the transition is what it is, we cannot change anything.
But what need the end users (that don't know a lot about python installation, but only need to use it as a tool) to do?
Can anyone help me?
