How do I access IDLE in Win7

W

W. eWatson

It's been many months since I played with Python, and have forgotten how
to bring up IDLE. If I simply click on a py file, I see what may be a
dos window appear and quickly disappear. If I right-click on the file,
and select IDLE, the same thing happens. If I go directly to All
Programs, the same thing happens when I select IDLE.

"Double-clicking" a [py|pyw] file in windows will auto run the file
(considering you have not changed the association). So if you're
trying to edit the file you'll want to try something else.
If I right-click on the file,
and select IDLE, the same thing happens.

You mean "Right-Click -> Send-To-IDLE"?
If I go directly to All
Programs, the same thing happens when I select IDLE.

You mean "Start_Menu -> All_Programs -> PythonX.X -> IDLE_(Python
GUI)"? Yes typically that is how you'd run IDLE form a winders box.

If you want to edit a python script then first open an editor and then
navigate to the file. There is also a "RightClick -> Open-with-IDLE"
option also but i prefer to navigate from my editor.

However it sounds like you may be experiencing a bug (or configuration
issue). Can you capture the "dos" error with the print screen button
and post it here? You'll have to be quick to catch it!

Also try to run IDLE from this path:
....\PythonXX\Lib\idlelib {double click PyShell.py}

Click to expand...
A right-click gives me two choices. Edit with IDLE or Open With. The
first produces nothing, or something so quick that I do not see it. The
second gives me a choice of python.exe, Notepad, or Choose Default
Program. None of these are helpful.
You mean "Start_Menu -> All_Programs -> PythonX.X -> IDLE_(Python
GUI)"? Yes typically that is how you'd run IDLE form a winders box.
Click to expand...
Yes, that's what I do, but again the result is essentially nothing.
If you want to edit a python script then first open an editor and then
navigate to the file. There is also a "RightClick -> Open-with-IDLE"
option also but i prefer to navigate from my editor.

Edit with IDLE as above. Doesn't work. No editor appears.
However it sounds like you may be experiencing a bug (or configuration
issue). Can you capture the "dos" error with the print screen button
and post it here? You'll have to be quick to catch it! Way too fast.

Also try to run IDLE from this path:
...\PythonXX\Lib\idlelib {double click PyShell.py}
Click to expand...
It stays up for about 1/2 second.

If I run cmd.exe and work my way down to .../idlelib, I find nothing
but idle.bat. strange. Hidden? I can get into line mode by using
python.exe. That is, I can type in print "abc", and get a result.

Baffling.

So, you don't have an idle.py or idle.pyw in C:\Python26\Lib\idlelib\
(or where ever you installed python)? If not, it sounds to me like
your python installation is screwed up. I would re-install.

Yes, I have both. Neither shows anything on the monitor when I double

Oh, I guess I misunderstood. Go ahead and open that cmd.exe window
back up. Please run the following and report back the results. In
the cmd.exe window run:

assoc .py
assoc .pyw
ftype Python.File
ftype Python.NoConFile

Those four commands should show us how the python file associations
are set up on your computer.

Then, let's try to run idle and capture whatever error message is
popping up. I don't think you've mentioned what version of python you
have installed. The following is for 2.6, since that's what I have
installed here, but it should work on any other version if you swap in
your installation directory for the 2.6 one below. Still in your
cmd.exe window, run the following:

c:\Python26\python.exe C:\Python26\Lib\idlelib\idle.py

If you get an exception, please copy and paste the details for us. If
that works and opens idle, please try running this:

C:\Python26\Lib\idlelib\idle.py

Based on the behavior you've described so far, that ought to fail, and
hopefully give some sort of message or exception for us to diagnose.

PS: If you're just trying to get things working, and don't care what
might be wrong, I would recommend just re-installing python. That
ought to clean up all the file associations and set things up properly
for you. That's likely the quickest way to just get things working.

recent-files.lst !!! weird

denied to c:||Users\\Wayne\\idlerc\\recent-files.lst'
Click to expand...

Yes you can. Right-click to bring up a menu with a "select" or "copy"
option (IIRC)

As for the error, see if there is file
/users/wayne/idlerc/recent-files.lst
And if there is, delete it. Or even delete the whole folder «idlerc».
IDLE should be able to cope with it not being there at all: it wouldn't
be there the first time IDLE is started by a user.

In the mean time, I punted and re-installed. It's still not quite right.
I uninstalled it. I was asked during install if I wanted to remove
c:\Python25. It was still there and had several folders (Lib, Scripts)
and files (fishe.py, RemovePIL.exe, junk.py). I said yes. It installed
2.5.2.

Edit with IDLE still fails, as does a simple py file like junk.py (has
five lines of simple math). That is executing junk.py or trying to get
it into IDLE doesn't work.

For junk.py, I tried Open With->Choose default program. I selected
idle.pyw. When I tried the new default for getting to IDLE, it
complained it was not a valid 32-bit app. That's very strange.

Click to expand...

Quite expected... idle.pyw is a Python byte code file... IT needs to
be run using a Python interpreter (pythonw.exe to suppress the shell
window).

What happens IN the command/shell if you type (replace the <words>
with the correct string on your installation)

<path to python>python -v <path to idle.pyw>idle.pyw

This is my install:

For junk.py, I tried Open With->Choose default program. I selected
idle.pyw. When I tried the new default for getting to IDLE, it
complained it was not a valid 32-bit app. That's very strange.
Click to expand...

Quite expected... idle.pyw is a Python byte code file... IT needs to
be run using a Python interpreter (pythonw.exe to suppress the shell
window).

What happens IN the command/shell if you type (replace the<words>
with the correct string on your installation)

<path to python>python -v<path to idle.pyw>idle.pyw

This is my install:

I'm quite willing to do this in the command window, but I know of no way
to copy it.

That all looks good.
I cannot copy from the cmd window. It ends with [errorno 13] Permission
denied to c:||Users\\Wayne\\idlerc\\recent-files.lst'

That sounds like the root of the problem, then. I'm assuming Wayne is
your username, but I don't know why you wouldn't have permission to
access something in your own user directory. Can you try deleting
that file in the windows explorer? You could try messing with the
permissions, but I doubt you care about a recent file list that sounds
several months old. You might even try removing (or renaming) the
whole C:\Users\Wayne\idlerc folder. Idle should re-build anything it
needs if it's not there when you start up.

It's a hidden file. I tried deleting w/o success so changed the name.
The file was dated 5/??/2010.

I tried the usual method of right-click on junk.py to see if Edit with
IDLE would appear in the menu. It didn't, so I tried a right-click to
Choose default program to idle.pyw. Using it again gave me an invalid
32-bit message.

I am able to get a proper response at the command level by entering
pythonw.exe. >>> print "abc" works fine. I've forgotten how to get out
of >>>. I'm killing the command window.

idle.pyw brings up IDLE at the command level.

I've given this problem over to the Python Tutor mail-list. I can
capture screens more easily than manipulate in cmd.exe. It may be a
preference problem on who owns what. SYSTEM seems to be the owner, and
not me.
