[Edu-sig] Not well supported on the Mac?

[Kirby Urner]

In a thread starting at:
http://forum.swarthmore.edu/epigone/geometry-research/pefrorsken

Clifford J. Nelson advises me to forsake a Python-based
approach for another language called Clean, because 
"Python is not supported well for the Mac."

I thought I'd run that by comp.lang.python, as well as
the Python edu-sig.  Given the importance of Mac technology
in the schools, limitations re Python on that platform 
are of some relevance to the "Computer Programming for
Everyone" (CP4E) thread.

Please reply cc: pdx4d@teleport.com -- no need to post a
reply to the thread mentioned above, as that's a pure 
geometry research list and doesn't need to get bogged 
down in technical discussions re Mac OS, Tkinter, IDLE 
or whatever (I've already posted enough along those 
lines, will maybe summarize feedback I get re Mac).
