Python consists of the Python programming language interpreter, plus
|
|
a set of programs to allow easy access to it for Mac users including
|
|
an integrated development environment, IDLE, plus a set of pre-built
|
|
extension modules that open up specific Macintosh technologies to
|
|
Python programs.
|

|
|
**** IMPORTANT ****

|
|
|
Before using IDLE or other programs using the tkinter graphical user
|
|
interface toolkit, visit http://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/

*******************
|
|
|
|
The installer puts applications, an "Update Shell Profile" command,
|
|
and a link to the optionally installed Python Documentation into the
|
|
"Python $VERSION" subfolder of the system Applications folder,
|
|
and puts the underlying machinery into the folder
|
|
$PYTHONFRAMEWORKINSTALLDIR. It can
|
|
optionally place links to the command-line tools in /usr/local/bin as
|
|
well. Double-click on the "Update Shell Profile" command to add the
|
|
"bin" directory inside the framework to your shell's search path.
