I am having a major problem using IDLE on my imac: it crashes as soon

IDLE' (IDLE 1.1.4, Python 2.4.4)

Terminal reports a "Segmentation fault" upon the crash.

My system is OS X v 10.4.8, iMac G5, 1 GB ram, and seems otherwise stable.

Please, can anyone tell me is there a known cause for this behaviour?
Should I direct this query elsewhere?

The best thing would be to enter a bug on the Python Tracker:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=105470&group_id=5470&func=browse

Feel free to assign the bug to me.


I don't have a way of testing on the Mac.

IDLE is written in pure Python, so it's either something in Python itself, the installation on OS X, or a problem with your imac. I haven't heard
about a problem like this.

Me neither.

Mick, do you have a Tk.framework in /Library/Frameworks? If so, could you open /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/Current/ Resources/"Wish Shell" and tell us the Tcl/Tk versions (found in the about dialog).
