setting up Python interpreter

I'm following a video tutorial (not available online) for installing Python and setting it up to use with Eclipse (text editor). To configure Eclipse to use Python, he adds the Python interpreter. In his movie, the python interpreter is a file python.exe.

However, when I'm browsing through my folder in Python, I don't see a file named python.exe. This (see image) is what I have instead.

1) which of these files do I click on to install the interpreter? or have I done something wrong and the correct file isn't here?

Thanks for your help.

The path for the Python .exe can be found in: /usr/local/bin/pythonw

Hope this helps!

I was using a windows tutorial when I should have been using a tutorial for Mac, so that explains why I didn't have an .exe file. Launching the wizard didn't set up the interpreter. I had to navigate to another folder on my Mac.
