Can I run a python program from within emacs?

[Robinson-6]

I have also just started with both Aquamacs and Python so I ask for  
your patience as well.
When I evaluate the buffer (C-c C-C) I don't see any response or  
output from my python program. Should another buffer open  
automatically? Should a terminal window open?
thanks for your patience.

I don't know much about Aquamacs or the version of Emacs the Aquamacs
you are using is based on, but the C-c C-c command runs
py-execute-buffer. Try M-x py-execute-buffer <RET> and see what
happens. It should pop up a *Python Output* buffer, unless you're
actually running the python interpreter in Emacs, in which case the
code is run in that buffer.

If you're still having trouble, probably an Emacs or Aquamacs list is
a better place to look.

There are two python modes -- python.el and python-mode.el
Default with emacs is python.el, what comes from/with python is python-
mode.el (needs a download and a couple of lines of setup see
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/PythonMode). I recommend python-mode.

The key-bindings are different --C-c ! to start interpreter followed
by C-c C-c to exec a file.

Jason,
Thanks, but I have already tried your suggestions (which seem like  
logical cause/effect actions) and nothing.  There must be a python  
preference or something I haven't set correctly.

There is no Aquamacs list, but I'll check further.

Thanks again for the quick reply.
