HI 

 i got an ArbotiX (wthXBee) connected to my Mac (running 10.8.2) using an ISP adapter via USB, i am trying to control a DX12AX servo 

i am trying to follow steps from http://code.google.com/p/arbotix/wiki/PyPose 
but it is quite confusing... 

1. "Most users will want to download the latest ArbotiX/PyPose release from the 
front page, extract the zip file, and copy the contents of the arbotix folder 
into the sketchbook. This includes the hardware folder, libraries folder and a 
number of example sketches." >"copy the contents of the arbotix folder into the 
sketchbook."
i can see my board in Arduino but not sketch folder. or examples for it ? can 
someone please post what exactly which files goes where ? 

2. "Open the Arduino IDE, from File -> Open select the PyPose sketch. From the 
Tools -> Board menu, select ArbotiX board to make sure all went well above. 
Connect your board via either the ISP or FTDI cable, select the correct port, 
and Upload it. While we ship each board with a version of pypose installed, it 
may not be the latest. "

i have install wxPython, PySerial (tar file?) but this :"Put the PyPose 
software in an easy to use location, and start pypose.py to run PyPose." i dont 
find it ? and i am not able to run the python test via terminal ?

any help appreciated thanks
rob
