Python IDE for mac
#11
I actually quite like Atom. i downloaded it earlier and its a lovely interface.

Unfortunately I still cannot import Selenium modules - I just can't figure out why they run in the Coderunner IDE but if I try to run the scripts from the command line as in Python example.py it does not work.

Must be some kind of Path variable that is messed up

I downloaded atom last time it was recommended.
I haven't given it a fair chance yet
Changing an editor is a difficult thing to do.
I used Brief (by underware) back in the 80's. I loved it so much,
that I wrote a clone after it was no longer available.
Before that, I worked strictly on Unix, and used Emacs which I loved, (and occasionally ed or vi though I never liked either),
then around 87, EDT on VMS, and back to Emacs on Linux.

maybe next will be Atom

Got this working now.

Typical newbie mistake - I had a directory with all my .py test scripts and I had inadvertently named one of the files itertools.py the same as one of the modules in the standard library I believe.

Renamed the file and everything is working wonderfully - glad I happened upon this as it could have flummoxed me for a good while yet.

Atom is working well for me so far as well.

Now that you've got the tools,
you need a tutorial.
see: https://python-forum.io/Thread-A-List-of...-Resources

the tutorial I like (personal opinion) is here
