Hi all,
I am trying to upgrade to the current version on my Mac, but get an error.
I've tried the suggestions online about

$ xcode-select --install

but that doesn't work.

I'm running enthought 2.7 (Python 2.7.3 -- EPD 7.3-2 (32-bit)) on OSX
Version 10.9.3

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

-Mark
