Hi Allen,
First, if you want to learn Python I don't recommend using Idle or any
other Python IDE as they generally aren't accessible. All you really
need is a standard ascii text editor like Windows Notepad. For instance,
if you wanted to write a simple hello world program in Python copy the
following code into Notepad and save it as hello.py.
#Hello World
#Version 1.0
#Written by Thomas Ward
print "Hello world!"
raw_input("Press enter to continue:")
When you click on hello.py it will display a simple text message, "hello
world," and prompt you to press enter to exit the program. That's all
you have to do to begin using Python.
Second, is there a specific reason why you picked 3.2? The reason I'm
asking is if you want to do serious Python development the majority of
packages such as Pygame are for Python 2.7. So if you wanted to write
games I'd recommend Python 2.7.3 and Pygame 1.9. Most Python developers
have not moved to Python 3 yet so you could run into problems developing
certain applications as a number of packages and modules have not been
upgraded to support Python 3.x yet.
Cheers!

Hello listers,
I'm using a Jaws 11 demo and I've installed Python version 3.2 on a Windows XP laptop. I
press control+n to start a new session. I can type but neither do I hear anything as I
am typing, nor can I hear anything when I press any of my arrow keys. I am hearing
absolutely nothing when I press any of the arrow keys, not even "blank".
Is there a Jaws setting I need to change or a Python setting I need to turn on
or off?
I'd like to begin learning the Python programming language.
Thanks
Allen
