# NAME

TigerJython

# SYNOPSIS

**tigerjython**

or

**java -jar /opt/tigerjython/tigerjython2.jar**

# DESCRIPTION

**TigerJython** is a free development environment for the Python programming
language. If you want to learn programming, this is the tool for you. It
already includes everything you need to start programming right away.

For all versions we guarantee not to
change or spy your software.

# FILES

Additional library modules can copied to the Lib subfolder of the
installation folder (where tigerjython2.jar resides). They are loaded
automatically by TigerJython. The folder already contains software for
special applications like a text-to-speech converter (TTS), firmware for
microcontroller development, support for MP3 sound, etc. If you do not
use these features, you may delete the files in the Lib folder and
TigerJython still works for most standard applications.

The installation folder also contains a subfolder TestSamples, where you
find a few typical applications (turtle graphics, coordinate graphics,
game development engine (GameGrid), simulations).
