I am new to Python, having perviously used IDL for all my scripts.
I was hoping to use Python and so I have just downloaded and
installed
version 2.6 using the mac installer. That all went fine.
I then opened up X11, all fine.
Why did you open X11?
If you used the Mac installer(*) it should run as a standard Mac
program,
no need for X?
What happens if you type Python into the standard MacOS Terminal
application?
Running X adds a whole bunch of extra path and environment issues
to resolve, it might be easier to get it running in the vanilla MacOS
first.
(*) BTW Which Mac installer? - there are at least 3 that I know of!
Just a thought.
