Aquamacs, just like any variant of GNU Emacs, will show a Python menu. There's a "Start Interpreter" function, and one to evaluate the buffer (C-c C-c). It's pretty straightforward (a euphemism for obvious). If the Python menu doesn't show, then something is going wrong. M-x python-mode RET would switch it on. -- http://aquamacs.org -- Aquamacs: Emacs on Mac OS X http://aquamacs.org/donate -- Could we help you?
