I have just seen my first UFO and I didn't even write the script!
With "A little Help from My Friends" Erik, Adam, and Frederik, I have finally succeeded in getting Python, RoboFab, and FontLab 5.1 running merrily hand-in-hand with OSX Lion 107.2 and executing Python scripts! Did I say a LITTLE help? That should read "Great Gobs of Gargantuan Help!"
