I've tried your recommended solution, but that command doesn't run. So, this seems like a more permanent solution by putting:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/homebrew/Cellar/python@3.11/3.11.9_1/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.11/lib/python3.11/config-3.11-darwin/libpython3.11.dylib

in my .zhrc

I figured it out:

import nimpy/py_lib as lib
pyInitLibPath("/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.12/Python")

Sadly, this is neither general nor portable. Any way to create solution that doesn't require the import and call every time?

My python install is from Python.org, so as standard as can be.
