MacPython consists of the Python programming language
|
|
|
|
|
interpreter, plus a set of programs to allow easy
|
|
|
|
|
access to it for Mac users (an integrated development
|
|
|
|
|
environment, a Python extension package manager), plus
|
|
|
|
|
a set of pre-built extension modules that open up
|
|
|
|
|
specific Macintosh technologies to Python programs
|
|
|
|
|
(Carbon, AppleScript, Quicktime, more).
