Oh, nasty! The good news is: it's not a Mavericks or even an OS X specific bug in IDLE. Looks like any attempt at opening a file in IDLE 2.7.6rc1 will cause IDLE to crash or hang. That's rather embarrassing! I've opened a release blocker issue for the problem here: http://bugs.python.org/issue19426 Thanks very much, Michael, for noticing it! If you find any other problems, please open issues for them on the Python bug tracker if there isn't already an issue there. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/Pythonmac-SIG
