so, I just got a brand new macbook pro a couple months, ago, my first mac. throughout the day I downloaded everything it said to, installed and configured everything according to the guide.
I got to the final step:

5. Run fpdb

pythonw path_to/fpdb.py &
I have X11, so I know what that is. I'm guessing "open a shell" means to run the terminal. I tried entering both strings, but I only received errors.
I also tried to open the fpdb.py file through finder, with several programs. The only response I could note was when I ran it through whatever the default is, and IDLE was jumping around on the app bar, until I force quit it.
Could someone give me an idiot's guide to how to run the program?
thanks
