 MacPython consists of the Python programming language interpreter, plus a set of programs to allow easy access to it for Mac users (an integrated development environment, a Python extension package manager), plus a set of pre-built extension modules that open up specific Macintosh technologies to Python programs (Carbon, AppleScript, Quicktime, more).\
