problem using pickle
Dear Python team, I have studied the excellent documentation, and attempted to make use of pickle thus: filename = 'my_saved_adventure' import pickle class object: def __init__(self,i,.t) : self.id = i . class world: def __init__(self): self.object class object: def __init__(self,i, .then Object instances of object are created myworld = world; myworld.Object = Object fileobj = open(filename,'wb') pickle.dump(myworld,fileobj); fileobj.close() result = "saved your game to " + filename fileobj = open(filename,'rb') myworld = pickle.load(fileobj); fileobj.close() Object = myworld.Object result = "restored your game from " + filename The proecedures execute without error but a file of only 21b is created containing " €c__main__world q . altho there are several k of object instance data. -- Nick "Mac" McElwaine -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

thanks again for continuing to address my problem. all those files are present as required. This is a hard slog.

Re: unable to open IDLE for Python3.50rc1 on windows10 64bit AMD
wow - a very comprehensive answer. However it seems I have now got it correctly reinstalled with the correct environment and path (as below) So I'm back to my original problem: C:\Users\Nick>python -m idlelib ** IDLE can't import Tkinter. Your Python may not be configured for Tk. ** On doing a repair or modify to install tcl/Tk again, the same result. C:\Users\Nick>python -c "import sys; print(*sys.path, sep='\n')" gives C:\Python\Python35\python35.zip C:\Python\Python35\DLLs C:\Python\Python35\lib C:\Python\Python35 C:\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages This looks OK, Python35 directory contains Lib and tcl as it does on my now working Win7 system, and Lib contains tkinter C:\Users\Nick>path PATH=C:\Python\Python35\Scripts\;C:\Python\Python35\;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Program Files\Broadcom\Broadcom 802.11 Network Adapter;;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static; -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: unable to open IDLE for Python3.50rc1 on windows10 64bit AMD
what a horrible environment windows is to support anything!
(I was a UNIX professional).
seems the user profile PATH is a registry entry, and was not updated when I
deinstalled Python2.7
still haven't figured out how to change it - I will NOT attempy a regedit.

Re: unable to open IDLE for Python3.50rc1 on windows10 64bit AMD
sorry to be such a darned nuisance -
fixed the PATH to eliminate Py2.7 references but get same result:
C:\Users\Nick>path
PATH=C:\Python\Python35\Scripts\;C:\Python\Python35\;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Program

Adapter;;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program
Files (x86)\ATI Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static;
C:\Users\Nick>python -m idlelib
C:\Python\Python35\python.exe: Error while finding spec for
'idlelib.__main__' (: bad magic number in 'idlelib':
b'\x03\xf3\r\n'); 'idlelib' is a package and cannot be directly executed

Re: unable to open IDLE for Python3.50rc1 on windows10 64bit AMD
Dear python Team
I think I've been wasting your time:
C:\Users\Nick>path
PATH=C:\Python27\;C:\Python27\Scripts;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\Program
Files\Broadcom\Broadcom 802.11 Network
Adapter;;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program
Files (x86)\ATI
Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static;C:\Python\Python35\Scripts\;C:\Python\Python35\
somehow the new py3.5 has been added to the end, not the beginning.
guess this path is what you meant by "my profile".
I'll set about fixing it.
Meery christmas to you all
Nick

Hello again.]
not sure what you mean by "my profile".
following your suggestion, looks normal:
C:\Users\Nick> python -c "import importlib;
print(importlib.find_loader('idlelib').path)"
C:\Python\Python35\lib\idlelib\__init__.pyc
A search for idlelib shows this one plus one deep inside OpenOffice and a
Game.

python 3.5.0rc1 problem opening IDLE in windows
Dear python team since windows applied some updates last night to my windows 10 and windows 7 systems, I can't open anything with IDLE as I usually do. On windows 10 (64bit with 64bit python), I performed the installation repair procedure. * Edit with IDLE does not appear as an installed windows program. * when I open my usual shortcut to IDLE ( C:\Python\Python35\Lib\idlelib\idle.py) something briefly flashes on the screen *and immediately disappears.* * if I directly open a python program in windows, I get these options (as usual):- edit with IDLE (-> python launcher for windows console) edit with IDLE (-> edit with IDLE (64bit)) - which I always use, *nothing happens* Any ideas gratefully received!!! sincerely Nick "Mac" McElwaine -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
