New submission from Roger Serwy <roger.se...@gmail.com>: Running IDLE on Windows typically uses pythonw.exe. Unfortunately any error messages written to stderr will cause IDLE to terminate abruptly without an error message. This is due to __stderr__ == None.
Attached is a patch against 3.3a0 for idle.pyw to redirect stderr messages to a dialog box. This allows IDLE to keep running so that the user can at least save their work before closing IDLE. ---------- components: IDLE files: idle_pyw.patch keywords: patch messages: 149244 nosy: serwy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: IDLE and pythonw.exe stderr problem type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23916/idle_pyw.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13582> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
