Does this link not tell all?
http://pydev.org/developers.html
Incidentally, I don't think PyDev is supported in these forums; it's not
Eclipse, but something built atop Eclipse and has a separate community
for support.

Sure. Typically for something like this (Android development tools work
this way as do most modern plug-ins for Eclipse), you down-load the
Eclipse package that's closest to what you want to do (in Helios, there
was a special package for PHP development; apparently Indigo, the
latest, doesn't do that, for example; there hasn't been one for Python
development specifically). Then, you launch Eclipse, go to Help ->
Install New Software and indicate the extra stuff you want by way of a
special update URL given by the originator of the package. In the case
of PyDev, I didn't see one, but I didn't squint real hard or spend much
time reading up on it.
If the tools are very old and unsupported, you * * might * * be able to
take their plug-in and drop it into the eclipse/dropins folder. As I
say, I don't know anything about PyDev per se, but I'll bet there's a
Google group, mailing list or something like that to help you out.
Python is very popular.
Hope this helps.

Yes, Macintosh guys are fierce champions of Eclipse and many in this and
other Eclipse forums us it all day every day, maybe even to do Python
development.
I just found this tutorial on PyDev. Lars Vogel's site may be the tippy
top Eclipse tutorial site. He rules in my opinion. Check it out:
