I think this is Windows 10.
Modify the "Start in" field of the IDLE shortcut. You can use environment variables, e.g. "%UserProfile%\Documents". Unfortunately, since I do not have any administrative privileges, I do not think I have the ability to modify any of these shortcuts. Nor do I know off hand how to set environment variables in a manner that would work consistently throughout the term, so that they persist for all logins. Since this is Windows-y system, I can't just tell my students to edit a .cshrc. Any other ideas? Roger Christman Pennsylvania State University -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
