New submission from Roger Serwy: This is a split from #13495 as it is truly a separate issue. Here's a partial quote from msg151278:
""" IDLE 3 no longer allows for editing of new files from the command line. For example: idle -e /tmp/newfile.py will momentarily flash an editor window before it is closed. This is due to "good_load" not being set. What's worse is that the IDLE process will continue running without having any visible windows open. """ Rather than remove the good_load behavior as was done in an earlier patch in #13495, I added an extra line in the initialization logic so that the editor can edit newly named files while still rejecting files that didn't load properly. ---------- assignee: roger.serwy components: IDLE files: goodload.patch keywords: patch messages: 187399 nosy: roger.serwy, terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: IDLE: can not edit new file names when using -e type: behavior versions: Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file29947/goodload.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17798> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
