Thanks. Pythonista looks good. Do you know if it can use any module? Besides 
the standard libraries that come with python I also use selenium. I'm not sure 
if it would work with pythonista.
In my mac selenium needs at least python 2.7. I wasn't able to get selenium to 
work for a while and it turned out it was because I was using python 2.5.
I also need read from and write to txt files as part of the algorithm. Do I 
need another app that does txt files?
