Hello everybody, can anyone please tell me where IDLE stores its user preferences?
I have the same problem as Brad R. described a year ago, but there was no reply to that: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/pythonmac-sig/2004-December/012321.html I changed my Keybindings, too, and now I cannot launch IDLE any more. The icon bounces several times and then disappears. My Console says the following: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/__argvemulator_idle", line 4, in ? execfile(os.path.join(os.path.split(__file__)[0], "idle")) File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idle", line 5, in ? main() File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 1361, in main if not flist.open_shell(): File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 275, in open_shell self.pyshell = PyShell(self) File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idlelib/PyShell.py", line 793, in __init__ OutputWindow.__init__(self, flist, None, None) File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idlelib/OutputWindow.py", line 16, in __init__ EditorWindow.__init__(self, *args) File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idlelib/EditorWindow.py", line 108, in __init__ self.apply_bindings() File "/Applications/MacPython-2.4/IDLE.app/Contents/Resources/idlelib/EditorWindow.py", line 778, in apply_bindings text.event_add(event, *keylist) File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1299, in event_add self.tk.call(args) _tkinter.TclError: bad event type or keysym "tab" I suppose I shouldn't have used the 'tab'-Key as a shortcut. Perhaps you should deactivate that option in IDLE to prevent users from crashing their IDLEs too. Reinstalling does not help in any way. I hope, somebody can tell me the name of the file, so I can fix this. Thanks. Andreas P.S.
