[Pythonmac-SIG] a beginner's list

[Charles Hartman]

I have an IDLE.app on my 10.4 machine. Since I haven't really used  
it, I can't remember if it came with Tiger, or showed up when I  
installed Python 2.4 -- does everyone with OS 10.4 have it? Is it  
just a shell to call  idlelib? If so, is there any way to tell  
whether it calls with python or with pythonw?
