Generally the notion of session restore is a fairly limited one; for instance, a text editor might keep track of which files were opened (and maybe cursor positions), but not the actual contents. Web browsers tend to do a bit more than that (a good thing, since they crash more often than text editors do), but still generally depend on being able to retrieve most of the content from the origin server(s) on restart. Are you hoping to have the IDLE editor restore the fact that you had files X, Y, and Z open, or are you hoping to have the interactive interpreter retain your entire history of commands and their results? The former is reasonably plausible (and may well be possible already - Terry?), but the latter is quite impractical. ChrisA -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
