571. Using Python on a Macintosh
58</H1>
59
60<P>
61Python on a Macintosh running Mac OS X is in principle very similar to
62Python on any other <span class="Unix">Unix</span>platform, but there are a number of additional
63features such as the IDE and the Package Manager that are worth pointing out.
64
65<P>
66Python on Mac OS 9 or earlier can be quite different from Python on
67Unix or Windows, but is beyond the scope of this manual, as that platform
68is no longer supported, starting with Python 2.4. See
69<a class="url" href="http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython">http://www.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython</a> for installers
70for the latest 2.3 release for Mac OS 9 and related documentation.
