The MacPython add-ons provide the best Python development environment 
for the Mac. See http://homepages.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython/.

Check out the other packages you can download with the package manager. 
The Python manuals in a help file are particularly good.

As for the difference between 'run' and 'run with interpreter' I'll look 
into it. We're probably not spawning a terminal session properly, or 
need specific instructions to integrate with the MacPython IDE if it's 
installed.
