This was reported two years ago, and still is not fixed

https://bugs.python.org/issue32824#msg312028

and the documentation is even older.  It starts off referencing
"Mac OS X 10.8" and Apple Documents that are archived.

Then the section referencing using the Finder and Python Launcher does not work with macOS Catalina. 

Can this finally be corrected?

Hi Gleen, this looks like there already exists an issue for this problem, please use it instead of opening a new one. 

Can you please open a new Pull-Request for solving this issue?

Thank you for your reply.  I just wanted to renew or recall attention to the older one.  It seems to have been dormant for too long.

A C program is like a fast dance on a newly waxed dance floor by people carrying razors.  -W.R.

And now for something completely different. -M.P
