MacOS X is catching on...

You can put your code in a file. Use textedit to create 
a file with a .py extension(by convention). Then in terminal type:

$ python foo.py

where $ is the unix prompt
python is the interpreter
foo.py is the file you created.

Yu can also use vi or emacs within terminal which is how real 
unix heads do it, but textedit will suffice - just make 
sure you save as plain text.

I'm sure someone will have pointed you to Danny's IDLE tutor 
by now. Just remember you need to run an Xserver like XonX 
to use IDLE on MacOS X.
