Greetings. I want to run IDLE on my iBook running Mac OS X 10.3.9 (Panther). Per the instructions on "Python on the Macintosh" [1], I downloaded and installed TclTkAqua [2], then downloaded and installed Universal- MacPython-2.4.3 [3]. Python launches in Terminal. The version shown is 2.4.3. When I launch IDLE (Applications/MacPython 2.4), a Console window and a *Python Shell* window open, and then I get the spinning beach ball. I have to Force Quit. Did I miss anything? How do I get this to work?

That an app beach balls don't mean it's hung or crashed, but only that it does something
