This is really important for newbies. They have no business being in the system Python folder. And Idle is for newbies! I was teaching an intro Python class, and tried to help a student who had been writing programs in Idle, but now could not get Python going. It took many minutes for me to discover that he had created a new file while the shell window had focus, and innocently saved the file as math.py, without looking for a new directory to put it in. What a pain tracking that down! ---------- nosy: +andyharrington _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue22121> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
