Greeting Everyone. First of all I want to introduce my self Adnan Umer

I’ve few suggestions on improving IDLE. Here are few:
Python-list, python-ideas, or idle-dev lists might have been better
places to put this, but here are my responses.
1.
On windows we can open any python file from context menu because
IDLE is not a application. I recommends to create a simple
executable that just calls ‘idle.pyw’ module in lib\idlelib.
I do not understand this. Idle is an application, and there already is
an idle.pyw. On windows, there is a Start Menu entry that calls
idle.pyw. In Win7, one can pin the icon to the task bar. I presume one
could make a desktop shortcut also.
2.
On executing python script with IDLE we can’t determine which file
is executed. I recommends to print file name before executing. I
made a little try to do that and I succeed.
I created http://bugs.python.org/issue21192. Post a patch there if you
have one.
3.
In Python Shell Save & Save As menus are enable and using them we
can save shell text as python script (.py) that never executes again
on IDLE. I recommends to either disable this option or save shell
text as plain text. I made a little try to disable this and succeed.
We will not disable being able to save the shell window.
http://bugs.python.org/issue11838 is about saving in runnable form.
