Xcode can be used to edit Python, but isn't a python IDE. This means
you won't be able to use Xcode's debugger to debug Python code. I
(and hopefully others) have filed an enhancement request for this in
Apple bugtracker, but so far without effect.
PyObjC ships with a number of project templates for building Python-
Cocoa applications. I guess one could change one of them to do what
you want. I won't be the one doing that though, I don't use Xcode
for Python development and editing Xcode templates isn't exactly a
fun activity.
