However, as Terry says, before the change can be accepted, those files need to 
be combined into an actual patch that:

- adds the desktop file and the icon to the Misc directory
- updates Misc/README to describe the new files

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

I just closed #15869 as a duplicate of this. I has another patch and possibly 
useful discussion.

To move forward, a concrete repository patch is needed. I only see here pieces 
of such a patch. I do not know how much of the Windows installation files are 
in the repository and how much in separate files. I know even less about Linux, 
what 'installation' means on that system, and how multiple languages would be 
handled.

I should think that an addition could be made to all open branches. While 
anything outside of idlelib is not covered by PEP 434, I think the same 
principles apply.

Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment:

Apart from the desktop file itself, which should be a merged version of the 
last attachment to this report and the files in Debuntu/Fedora/whatever, there 
is the issue of installation.  Someone has to track the desktop file spec or 
menu spec and edit one of the files involved in the Python build process.

I don’t know if having missed beta1 means that this will be deferred to 3.3.

Don’t we expect beginners to start IDLE from their menu, and middle to advanced 
users to type “python” in their terminal?  +0.

IDLE does have a .desktop file in my Debian, so +1 on integrating that in our 
source tree.

I am past beginner stage and I still open with the Start mene ;-)
If/when I install Ubuntu or other Linux, I would like to still be able to do 
whatever is the equivalent, as with other stuff, rather than have to open a 
command window and type a command.

Let me change my +0 to a +1 then :)

For reference, the file used in Debuntu for Pythonx.y.desktop: 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~doko/python/pkg3.1-debian/annotate/head%3A/PVER.desktop.in
idle.desktop: 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~doko/python/pkg3.1-debian/annotate/head%3A/idle.desktop.in

License unclear, author apparently doko, so I guess we’re good.

3 weeks since msg113207 and no response.  Seriously, what is a reasonable time

That depends.  Especially feature requests need not be closed prematurely.

I asked because there was no such thing in the Unix I once used and I have 
never used Linux (yet). I take Georg's answer to mean that this is not 
obviously obsolete and should be left open.

I see lots of interest and several translations. Was there an intention to add 
this to the distribution (or has it been)? Or is it out-of-date?

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

I'm adding a French translation, and removing the Application category
(which doesn't exist as per the freedesktop specification).
Also, I think the Name is too long right now. The Python programming
language or Le langage de programmation Python looks longish for a
menu entry. So I suggest just setting the Name to Python. The only
people for which the menu entry may be useful know what Python is anyway.

PS :
the desktop entry specification
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-entry-spec
the menu spec (listing possible categories)
