Our recommendation

On Mac OS, we suggest the Smultron text editor.

To install Smultron:

To run Komodo Edit:

  • Start Finder
  • On the left side of the Finder, under "Places", click on "Applications".
  • In the middle column, scroll down to to find Komodo Edit.
  • Double-click Komodo Edit to launch the editor.

Success!

Now you have an editor that you can use to open any text file, including Python programs.

If you prefer a different editor for text, check with an instructor before moving on to make sure it will work for the weekend.
