| This program will install MacPython 2.3b1 for Mac OS X. |
| |
| 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). |
| |
| The installer puts the applications in MacPython-2.3 in your |
| Applications folder, command-line tools in /usr/local/bin and the |
| underlying machinery in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework. |
| |
| The PythonIDE application has a Help command that gets you started |
| quickly with MacPython and contains references to other documentation. |
