Xcode and Python

Hi everyone,

I know Python is pre-installed on OS X (albeit an older version), but I cannot seem to find anyway to actually create a Python project. I've looked around, and it seems there was a way to do so in Tiger, with PyObjC, but I cannot even find it installed. I have OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.5) and Xcode 3.2.4.

I know there are other editors I can use, but I would prefer to use Xcode if at all possible.

Any help would be appreciated; thanks in advance!

Xcode supports syntax-coloring for Python. In Tiger and Leopard Xcode had Project- and File-Templates special for PyObjC. You can take an older Xcode-Version and put those templates into your User-Templates.

Addendum: The PyObjC Project has newer Templates for Xcode, so you better use them.

Most of the Python/Objective-C/Cocoa bridges are looking a bit old, and Xcode hasn't had much support for scripting languages such as Python and Ruby for years. Instead of tacking on to a 5 year old (and marked as solved) topic, you might try creating your own topic, with details more specific than "i want to run pythons codes", perhaps including other relevant information such as the versions of Xcode and OS you are using.
