I downloaded Pydev plugin for Eclipse (3.5.2) today on Mac OSX 10.5.8. To be able to use Pydev, I need to configure the interpreter in Eclipse. I am not clear what exactly I need to do here, or what this step does. I want to make sure that when I run programs from Eclipse using Pydev, it uses the Enthought Python Distribution (EPD) I have installed, and can use all the packages that come with EPD. Can someone please tell me simple steps that I need to follow.

If I click on autoconfig, it shows a bunch of folders with the path

/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.Framework/Versions/2.5/...

But I know that the Python that came with EPD is version 2.6.4, so autoconfig is not choosing EPD.

Thanks for any help.
