No. This is not the correct behavior. One of two things has happened, most likely. Either you do not have Python installed, or you have erroneously mapped files with the .py extension to open in Xcode.

On OS X, in order to execute scripts, you need to use Terminal. Simply double-clicking on them will only open them up in a text editor.

Yes that worked, thanks.

I have done a dry print run to test the machine. However the extruder does not seem to be turning. When I press extrude when not printing it does turn!

Is there a setting or something I have to do in skeinforge or in pronterface?

Thanks,
Simon
