Run python and at the prompt type "import sys" and then
"sys.path". This should show you where all kinds of
things are installed...

If that's not what you wanted, try specifying what you mean
by "preinstalled python libraries". I can think of at least
two things that this phrase might refer to...

For the "where's the standard library" interpretation, the following works on
any platform:

python -c "import pdb; print pdb.__file__"

The rest of the standard library will be in the same directory as pdb.pyc.

Cheers,
Nick.

Thank you. That's exactly what I needed.
