Xcode isn't a very useful python environment right now. It is basicly
just
a complicated text editor with syntax coloring support. I'd very much
like
to see good Python support in Xcode to make it easier to use Xcode's
tools
for Python scripts, but that is not going to happen without support from
Apple.
I have filed a feature request at Apple to implement Python support
in Xcode
or at least open up the Xcode APIs to make it possible to do this
ourselves.
Please file another feature request (at bugreport.apple.com), more
requests
for a feature seems to give the request more weight at Apple.
BTW. PyObjC is one of the possible types of projects because
PyObjC's installer
includes a number of project and file templates.

That is easy, but see above (and Bob's mail) for reasons why this is not
very useful.
