If python 2.7.1 rejects the code, then I assume that the code is written for python 3 (which is a sensible version to learn these days). You can try to set the first line to: #!/usr/bin/env python3 If that doesn't work, try to be more specific (open a terminal, and see which versions of python are available, typing python and pressing the tab-key should provide some options). As a last resort, you could use the full path to python: #!/usr/local/bin/python3 I'm sure others will provide the correct method for getting BBEdit to recognize your scripts and finding the appropriate interpreter.
