Python itself is in interpreter which executes instructions from an ordinary text file that contains the python program. As such Python itself has no "menu bar" or any user interface beyond an interactive mode that you run from the command line. Thus to actually use Python you can do one of: 1. Use the IDLE program that comes with most distributions of Python. On windows it will install itself to the Start menu. IDLE is a nice integrated development environment that provides an editor (complete with menu bar) and a nice means of running and debugging your Python programs. 2. Use any programmer editor, such as Notepad++ on windows, to make a program file, save it with a .py extension. Since most beginner Python programs have no GUI but do console input and output, you'll want to open up a command prompt, navigate to where your python file is and type: python myfile.py 3. Use an online tool like http://learnpython.org, http://repl.it, or http://www.skulpt.org/ to play around with the Python language without having to install anything. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
