IDLE runs your code in the same operating system process, which means that anything that crashes your code may crash IDLE, too, and also changes the behavior of your code as with sys.exit(). You can use it as the editor or for tests in the console, but run pygame code elsewhere. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
