| 56 | 1.1.1 How to run a Python script</A> | |
| 57 | </H2> | |
| 58 | ||
| 59 | <P> | |
| 60 | Your best way to get started with Python on Mac OS X is through the PythonIDE | |
| 61 | integrated development environment, see section <A href="IDE.html#IDE">1.2</A> and use the Help | |
| 62 | menu when the IDE is running. | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | <P> | |
| 65 | If you want to run Python scripts from the Terminal window command line | |
| 66 | or from the Finder you first need an editor to create your script. | |
| 67 | Mac OS X comes with a number of standard <span class="Unix">Unix</span> command line editors, | |
| 68 | <b class="program">vim</b> and <b class="program">emacs</b> among them. If you want a more Mac-like | |
| 69 | editor <b class="program">BBEdit</b> or <b class="program">TextWrangler</b> from Bare Bones Software | |
| 70 | (see <a class="url" href="http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.shtml">http://www.barebones.com/products/bbedit/index.shtml</a>) are | |
| 71 | good choices. <b class="program">AppleWorks</b> or any other | |
| 72 | word processor that can save files in ASCII is also a possibility, including | |
| 73 | <b class="program">TextEdit</b> which is included with OS X. | |
| 74 | ||
| 75 | <P> | |
| 76 | To run your script from the Terminal window you must make sure that | |
| 77 | <span class="file">/usr/local/bin</span> is in your shell search path. | |
| 78 | ||
| 79 | <P> | |
| 80 | To run your script from the Finder you have two options: | |
| 81 | ||
| 82 | <UL> | |
| 83 | <LI>Drag it to <b class="program">PythonLauncher</b> | |
| 84 | </LI> | |
| 85 | <LI>Select <b class="program">PythonLauncher</b> as the default application | |
| 86 | to open your script (or any .py script) through the finder Info window | |
| 87 | and double-click it. | |
| 88 | </LI> | |
| 89 | </UL> | |
| 90 | ||
| 91 | <P> | |
| 92 | PythonLauncher has various preferences to control how your script is launched. | |
| 93 | Option-dragging allows you to change these for one invocation, or use its | |
| 94 | Preferences menu to change things globally. | |
| 95 | ||
