Lou-

I can't vouch that Piddle has been updated to work properly this way
on the Mac, but what you should try is to drop the "setup.py" file
on the *Interpreter* (not the IDE), and when a command window pops
up, type in "build" (to build the package in the current directory)
or "install" (to build it and copy it to your site-packages directory
so it is accessible elsewhere).  As long as Piddle doesn't do something
out of the ordinary, this should work on a Mac (though if Piddle builds
C extensions, you'll need to have a copy of Codewarrior somewhere
on your drive, and if you don't have the newest version check the
MacPython page for info on what to change to get compatibility with
old Codewarrior).
