ok, finally I got it. I fell for a bug that Noam Raphael pointed out and supplied a patch for eight years ago (http://old.nabble.com/Fix-freezes!-td1182996.html). It is still present in Idle 3.2. I guess IDLE development really is slow =) - this must change!
That refers to an issue in the IDLEfork tracker filed after the last independent release of IDLEfork. I am not sure when IDLEfork was merged into trunk, but I suspect that a few legitimate bug reports were not copied over. This one, by Bruce Sherwood, may or may not be on the current tracker, but it is on my personal todo list:
"Not sure whether this should be a bug report or a feature request, but it would be really nice if a file save would by default supply the important .py extension. Without it, colorizing doesn't work, which is confusing to people. And of course there are other good reasons for wanting the .py extension on Python files." -- Terry Jan Reedy _______________________________________________ IDLE-dev mailing list IDLE-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/idle-dev
