This document provides a quick overview of some Mac OS X specific features in
the Python distribution.
-* ``--enable-framework``
+* ``--enable-framework[=DIR]``
If this argument is specified the build will create a Python.framework rather
than a traditional Unix install. See the section
_`Building and using a framework-based Python on Mac OS X` for more
information on frameworks.
+ If the optional directory argument is specified the framework it installed
+ into that directory. This can be used to install a python framework into
+ your home directory::
+
+ $ configure --enable-framework=/Users/ronald/Library/Frameworks
+ $ make && make install
+
+ This will install the framework itself in ``/Users/ronald/Library/Frameworks``,
+ the applications in a subdirectory of ``/Users/ronald/Applications`` and the
+ command-line tools in ``/Users/ronald/bin``.
+
* ``--with-framework-name=NAME``
Specify the name for the python framework, defaults to ``Python``. This option
