|
<p>This short tutorial will show you how to install and use FreeCAD Macros.
|
|
</p><p>This tutorial was made on the Windows platform so a small adjustment may be necessary for other systems.
|
|
It was updated to cover the Macintosh platform.

<h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Python">Python</span></h2>
|
|
<p>Python is a programming language which is very simple to use and very fast to <a href="Introduction_to_Python.html" title="Introduction to Python">learn</a>.
|
|
</p><p>Python files have a file extension of <b>.py</b> while FreeCAD macros (which are also Python files) use the file extension <b>.FCMacro</b>. The Macro facility of FreeCAD can also execute files with the extension <b>.py</b>. Python was invented by <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.python.org/~guido/">Guido Van Rossun</a>
