Personally, I would slightly prefer that the default behaviour on starting IDLE via the shortcut in the start menu is to open a blank document and no shell window. I think of IDLE first and foremost as an editor, and I prefer it to behave like other editors that start up with a blank document. But this may be better dealt with by tweaking the shortcuts/launchers created by the installer. PS - I see my name mentioned in the log of revision 71126. I'm pretty sure the changes to enable_shell were not part of my original patch. Perhaps Kurt included them entirely by accident? I'm not sure whether they're related to the sub-process problem. _______________________________________________ IDLE-dev mailing list IDLE-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/idle-dev
