First a warning: this information may become outdated if a new CodeWarrior is
released after MacPython. The
<a href="http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython.html">MacPython homepage</a> will
hopefully have updated instructions in that case.

Next, <em>in a separate folder</em>, you check out the
mac-specific sources. You then move the <code>Mac</code> folder from this
checkout (the only folder with anything in it) to the Python source folder.
Note that the checking out in a separate folder and moving is necessary,

The CVS path to use for the mac stuff can be found
at the <a href="http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython.html">MacPython
homepage</a>. Finally, you check out the external libraries needed in
the parent of the Python folder. The CVS path for these libraries is
the parent of the toplevel Python folder. The CVS path for these libraries is
also mentioned at the MacPython homepage. <p>
Neither of the pages mentioned above contains the passwords for the
