Question

how to unpack the file Python-2.5.6.tar.bz2

Answer 1

Depends on what you are using. Are you on Linux? Windows?
Additionally, just in case, What are you trying to do with Python? Install it?

Answer 2

windows 32 bit. i want to install it.

Answer 3

.tar.bz2 is for linux

Is there a reason you are specifically downloading version 2.5.6? Current production versions are 2.7.3(which is what some suggest newbies start out with) and 3.3.0

I suggest you download the "Python 2.7.3 Windows Installer" at http://www.python.org/download/ which would be quick and easy to install and is made for your architecture(x86).
