I'm trying to teach Komodo to fire up IDLE when I hit the right keystrokes. I can use the exact path of the shortcut in start menu in the Windows Explorer location bar to launch IDLE so I was hoping Komodo would be able to use it as well. But, giving this path to Komodo causes it to say that 1 is returned. This appears to be a failure...
If I have no connection to internet, does that mean I can't start IDLE (which comes with python 3.0)? ...
Python for Windows by default comes with IDLE, which is the barest-bones IDE I've ever encountered. For editing files, I'll stick to emacs, thank you very much. However, I want to run programs in some other shell than the crappy windows command prompt, which can't be widened to more than 80 characters. IDLE lets me run programs in i...
Sometimes I'll be working with, say, a list of thousands of items in IDLE, and accidently print it out to the shell. When this happens, it crashes or at least very significaly slows down IDLE. As you can imagine, this is extremely inconvenient. Is there a way to make it, rather than printing the entire thing, just give me a summarised [1...
IDLE's subprocess didn't make connection. Either IDLE can't start a subprocess or personal firewall software is blocking the connection. Don't think this has been asked-how come this comes up occasionally when running very simple programs-I then have to go to Task Manager & stop all Pythonw processes to get it to work again? ...
I have access to both a PC and a mac for a python class. I find I am unable to set breakpoints in the IDLE debugger in the mac (works fine on the PC). I've tried "ctrl-click" and configuring the touchpad to recognize two taps at once as a secondary click. I don't have a mouse for the mac, just the touchpad. MAC OS 10.4.10 tiger Pyt...
Hi Geniuses, Does anyone know where or how to set the default path/directory on saving python scripts prior to running? On a Mac it wants to save them in the top level ~/Documents directory.. Yuck! I would like to specify a real location. Any ideas? Alternatively I'd be cool with just not saving the file (if needed a temp file in...
I wish to test my django project form IDLE shell in windows. I run following commands from django.template import Template, Context t = Template('test template') but I get following error. Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#1>", line 1, in <module> t = Template('test template') File "C:\Program Files\Python26\...
Why is my program giving me an error here? import random TheNumber = random.randrange(1,200,1) NotGuessed = True Tries = 0 GuessedNumber = int(input("Take a guess at the magic number!: ")) while NotGuessed == True: if GuessedNumber < TheNumber: print("Your guess is a bit too low.") Tries = Tries +...
Is there a way to paste a block of code into IDLE? Pasting line by line works, but sometimes I'd like to paste many lines at once. When I try, IDLE reads the first line and ignores the rest. >>> a = 1 b = 2 c = 3 >>> >>> a 1 >>> b Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module> b NameError: name 'b' i...
I installed Python 3.1 yesterday on my Windows Vista PC, and was surprised to find that the version of IDLE is 2.6.4, for "Python 2.6.4 (r264:75708, Oct 26 2009, 08:23:19) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32" I was hoping to use IDLE to investigate some of the new features of Python 3... I guess I'm stuck with the command line... Any...
Hello, After installing RPy2 from http://rpy.sourceforge.net/rpy2.html I'm trying to use it in Python 2.6 IDLE but I'm getting this error: >>> import rpy2.robjects as robjects >>> robjects.r['pi'] <RVector - Python:0x0121D8F0 / R:0x022A1760> What I'm doing wrong? ...
I'm using python 2.5 in windows on a macbook pro with IDLE. How do I get previously typed commands in the python shell? In other operating systems I've managed to do this using 'ctrl' + 'up arrow' or a similar combination. I've tried all likely combinations without success. Thanks. ...
I messed up my IDLE shortcut. What is the way to start IDLE from the cmd.exe shell in Windows? ...
This happens in IDLE and Windows 7 RC1 (if that helps). Here is the module: from math import * from TurtleWorld import * world = TurtleWorld() bob = Turtle() bob.delay = 0.1 def polyline(turtle, length, n, angle): for i in range(n): fd(turtle, length) rt(turtle, angle) def polygon(turtle, length, n): """ p...
I'm currently using IDLE, its decent, but I'd like to know if there're better lightweight IDEs built especially for Mac — free or commercial. ...
I'm an absolute beginner using IDLE (Python 2.6.4) to learn the basics. I recently found a Python program that I want to run but it throws an error although the code looks fine (i.e all modules exist): from css.parse import parse data = """ em { padding: 2px; margin: 1em; border-width: medium; border-style: dashed;...
I'm using idle (python 2.5) via cygwin on a windows vista machine and when I try to open an already existing .py file I see the full file path /home/aaron/C:/cygwin/home/aaron/script.py on the banner of the freshly openned file window when I expect simply /home/aaron/script.py In addition, the file appears blank which makes sense...b...
I am using python 2.5 on windows. All I am doing is unpickling a large file (18MB - a list of dictionaries) and modifiying some of its values. Now this works fine. But when I add a couple of prints, IDLE restarts. And weirdly enough it seems to be happening where I added the print. I figured this out commenting and uncommenting things li...
I'm testing some python code that parses command line input. Is there a way to pass this input in through IDLE? Currently I'm saving in the IDLE editor and running from a command prompt. I'm running Windows. ...
