For some reason I  got the impression that this only applied to some graphics 
library routines so I ignored the warnings.  Thanks for the reply and sorry to 
take your time.

[issue19684] OS X 10.6.8 Crash when opening a file

2013-11-21 Thread Will Adams

New submission from Will Adams:

Apologies in advance if I am posting incorrectly.  This is my first post here.  

IDLE crashes when I open a *.py file on my old mac pro from IDLE.  I haven't 
seen this on version 3.3.2, but I need to do some work in version 2.7 today so 
I downloaded 2.7.6 and ran into this system dump:
