Re: Python on Mac  Steven D. Majewski ( Fri, 17 Sep 1993
10:15:58 -0400  Well - I haven't used the Mac Python for a while
so I'm not sure, but generally, Mac documents have a TYPE field
and a CREATOR field. If you write a python script with an Mac
editor, the TYPE field will be set to 'TEXT' ( assuming you save
it AS text, and not some native format ) and the CREATOR will be
the Editor program. The creator field is used to tell the system
what program to launch when the document is clicked on. So if
you change the creator field to the field for Python ( does
anyone happen to know what that is? ) then the system will
launch python when you click on that file. It is then up to the
application ( PYTHON ) to recognize that it has been given an
initial event ( a file open event ) and open and read that file.
I don't happen to know if Mac Python does this. If I get a
chance to sit in front of a Mac for a while, I'll give it a
test.  Does Mac Python generate .pyc files ? and are they set to
creator=Python ? If that
