Re: [Python-Dev] draft 3.1 release schedule

[Mitchell L Model]

Would whoever is responsible for IDLE please take a look at the 
patches I submitted for Python 2 & 3 [tracker IDs 5233 and 5234 
respectively]. These change the behavior of IDLE so that IDLESTARTUP 
or PYTHONSTARTUP files are executed with each restart. This allows 
loading frequently used packages, personal utilities, etc. 
automatically at each restart. I consider this a very important 
problem in IDLE, especially when using it to teach. I would really 
like to see them in 3.1. The patch is already there; someone just has 
to do whatever gets done with patches to validate it and check it in. 
It's not a lot of code changes.
