Ok, I've installed MacPython.  It doesn't seem to work right though...
for example, if I try to run the 00-HELLO-WORLD.py example then it
crashes and tells me the IDE has unexpectedly crashed.

I can't really see how to run things either.  (I'm used to just typing
"python" in a terminal on Unix but that seems to just run the version
that comes pre-installed.)

Sorry for not knowing much about Macs and being a bit clueless.
