1. Using Python on a Mac OS 9 Macintosh
Using Python on a Macintosh, especially on Mac OS 9 (MacPython-OSX includes a complete Unix Python) can seem like something completely different than using it on a Unix-like or Windows system. Most of the Python documentation, both the ``official'' documentation and published books, describe only how Python is used on these systems, causing confusion for the new user of MacPython-OS9. This chapter gives a brief introduction to the specifics of using Python on a Macintosh.
The section on the IDE (see Section 1.3) is relevant to MacPython-OSX too.
