There's nothing preventing someone from trying to create their own variant of an IDLE.app but it's probably a bit tricky to get everything right even with py2app and, since the standard python.org OS X installers already provide two ways to launch IDLE (as an .app and from the command line), I don't see providing hooks in idlelib for yet another way as a significant use case. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ IDLE-dev mailing list IDLE-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/idle-dev
