See <a class="reference external" href="http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython">http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython</a> for installers for the latest 2.3 release for Mac OS 9 and related documentation.</p> <div class="section" id="getting-and-installing-macpython"> <span id="getting-osx"></span><h2>4.1. Getting and Installing MacPython<a class="headerlink" href="#getting-and-installing-macpython" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> <p>Mac OS X 10.8 comes with Python 2.7 pre-installed by Apple. If you wish, you are invited to install the most recent version of Python from the Python website (<a class="reference external" href="http://www.python.org">http://www.python.org</a>). A current “universal binary” build of Python, which runs natively on the Mac’s new Intel and legacy PPC CPU’s, is available there.</p> <p>What you get after installing is a number of things:</p> <ul class="simple"> <li>A <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">MacPython</span> <span class="pre">2.7</span></tt> folder in your <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">Applications</span></tt> folder. In here you find IDLE, the development environment that is a standard part of official Python distributions; PythonLauncher, which handles double-clicking Python scripts from the Finder; and the “Build Applet” tool, which allows you to package Python scripts as standalone applications on your system.</li> <li>A framework <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework</span></tt>, which includes the Python executable and libraries. The installer adds this location to your shell path. To uninstall MacPython, you can simply remove these three things. A symlink to the Python executable is placed in /usr/local/bin/.</li> </ul> <p>The Apple-provided build of Python is installed in <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework</span></tt> and <tt class="file docutils literal"><span class="pre">/usr/bin/python</span></tt>, respectively. You should never modify or delete these, as they are Apple-controlled and are used by Apple- or third-party software. Remember that if you choose to install a newer Python version from python.org, you will have two different but functional Python installations on your computer, so it will be important that your paths and usages are consistent with what you want to do.</p> <p>IDLE includes a help menu that allows you to access Python documentation. If you are completely new to Python you should start reading the tutorial introduction in that document.</p> <p>If you are familiar with Python on other Unix platforms you should read the section on running Python scripts from the Unix shell.</p> <div class="section" id="how-to-run-a-python-script"> <h3>4.1.1. How to run a Python script<a class="headerlink" href="#how-to-run-a-python-script" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3> <p>Your best way to get started with Python on Mac OS X is through the IDLE integrated development environment, see section <a class="reference internal" href="#ide"><em>The IDE</em></a> and use the Help menu when the IDE is running.</p> <p>If you want to run Python scripts from the Terminal window command line or from the Finder you first need an editor to create your script. Mac OS X comes with a number of standard Unix command line editors, <strong class="program">vim</strong> and <strong class="program">emacs</strong> among them. If you want a more Mac-like editor, <strong class="program">BBEdit</strong> or <strong class="program">TextWrangler</strong> from Bare Bones Software (see <a class="reference external" href="http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.shtml">http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.shtml</a>) are good choices, as is <strong class="program">TextMate</strong> (see <a class="reference external" href="http://macromates.com/">http://macromates.com/</a>).

Option-dragging allows you to change these for one invocation, or use its Preferences menu to change things globally.</li> </ul> </div> <div class="section" id="running-scripts-with-a-gui"> <span id="osx-gui-scripts"></span><h3>4.1.2. Running scripts with a GUI<a class="headerlink" href="#running-scripts-with-a-gui" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3> <p>With older versions of Python, there is one Mac OS X quirk that you need to be aware of: programs that talk to the Aqua window manager (in other words, anything that has a GUI) need to be run in a special way. Use <strong class="program">pythonw</strong> instead of <strong class="program">python</strong> to start such scripts.</p> <p>With Python 2.7, you can use either <strong class="program">python</strong> or <strong class="program">pythonw</strong>.</p> </div> <div class="section" id="configuration"> <h3>4.1.3.
