IDLE developers,
In the interest of simplifying IDLE's code, I suggest that running IDLE
*without* a subprocess be deprecated. Since 2009, IDLE could have
multiple instances running while using a subprocess. See
http://bugs.python.org/issue1529142
Running without a subprocess has a flaw in that Ctrl+C from the IDLE GUI
can not be used to stop a program. This can be irritating to Python
beginners if an accidental infinite loop arises and the user's only
recourse is to restart IDLE, losing any unsaved work in the editor windows.
What are your thoughts?
- Roger
