Try M-x load-library RET python RET If you see the message 'Loading python ... done', then it is. This defines the commands python-mode, run-python, python-shell. For their descrptions: C-h f python-mode RET (and so on) Invoke by M-x python-mode RET, etc. (If you're totally new to emacs, 'C-h' means 'Ctrl-h', 'M-x' means 'Meta-x' (and the 'Meta' key is probably one of your Alt keys).
