Alternately, I believe that MacPython comes packaged with an application called "Python Launher". If you right click a python file (.py) once this is app is installed, you can select "Open With -> Python Launcher" This method is more for people that are uncomfortable with the command line (Terminal.app)
As a side note, I would recommend installing a newer version of Python. (3.1.2) On Oct 20, 2010, at 6:46 PM, शंतनू wrote: > Save the file. e.g. my_test_prog.py. Open 'terminal'.
