I am interested in making some changes and additions to the Python
environment (Python and IDLE). I have the source code and can build the
source, but what I want to know is what are the "main" functions or
source code for Python and IDLE. Specifically I would like to know what
in Python and IDLE would be analogous to void main () in a standard C
program. This will help me to work out the structure of the interpreter
and the environment. Your help will be greatly appreciated. The changes
I wish to make are for investigating the modification of the Python
environment for novice programmers.

Actually IDLE was written purley in python, you can find the sources to
it in...
UNIX: /usr/lib/python<version>/idlelib
Windows: C:\Python<versi on>\Lib\idlelib
If you are looking to modifly mostly just the IDE I would start there,
however if you are more interesting in modifying python Itself just
look around in the sources, it should be relativley easy to find.

Thank you for your response. I guess I was looking for a more specific
answer. I have the source and I have been looking around at the various
code. I think my question is, what is the name of the toplevel source
code file of C code for the Python interpreter, and what is the name of
the toplevel source code file for IDLE? Does that make sense?
Thanks again. da****@gmail.co m wrote:

Right, I am pretty sure that the "toplevel" source of idle is in
dir-to-pylibs/idlelib/idle.py
(or maybe .pyw) that is were all the glue code is for idle, as for the
python source, I haven't messed around with it too much so I couldn'
tell you, well just have to wait for somone else to post that
information...

I'm a programmer with 5 year of experience into Perl. I'm on that point
where you resolve problems without thinking on HOW you'll do it with
that language but only on the problem itself.
Since Perl 6 started I've been following it. The conclusion I have is

What I would basically like to do for starters is to be able to define

I am just getting started with Python, and I think I may be thinking
about it wrong. I'd like to be able to work interactively with some

the console to load my source. Is there a similar command in python? I

One thing I really liked about Ubuntu was that Nautilus allowed you to
add scripts to a directory which could be accessed via the RMB. It was a
very simple thing to do.
I've recently switched to Leopard, and I'm trying to do the same thing.
I'm fairly experienced with Python, but new to OS X. I have installed
FinderPop, which lets me add scripts and make them accessible via
Contextual Menus, but it is not as easy as the Nautilus way.
