[issue32447] IDLE shell won't open on Mac OS 10.13.1

2018-01-02 Thread Steve Margetts

Steve Margetts <stevemarge...@me.com> added the comment:

OK, so I created a profile for my son (single name without any spaces!) and 
that seems to allow both Python and IDLE to work fine. I'll try and sort out my 
profile slow time - it doesn't seem to be causing any other issues just now. 
Thanks for the guidance.

OK, those commands give:

Steve Margetts <stevemarge...@me.com> added the comment:

Thanks for the help. I've installed ActiveTCL 8.5.18.0 as per the Python 
recommendation. Running from terminal:

Did not bring up any error message. However, subsequently trying to run IDLE 
from terminal brought up:

iMac:~ Steve Margetts$ python3.6 -m idlelib

 Warning: unable to create user config directory

 Exiting!

iMac:~ Steve Margetts$ 

Does this look like a permissions issue? If so, any idea what to try next? I'm 
logged on as an administrator on a home computer. Is this likely to be a 
security setting issue? Thanks again for any help - I'm a child of the GUI and 
the last time I coded anything was in BBC Basic!

[issue32447] IDLE shell won't open on Mac OS 10.13.1

2017-12-29 Thread Steve Margetts

New submission from Steve Margetts <stevemarge...@me.com>:

I am trying to install Python on a Max running OS 10.13.1 (so my son can use a 
'Coding for Beginners' book). Both 2.7 and 3.6 have the same problem: Clicking 
on IDLE leads to the icon bouncing a couple of times in the dock, but not 
opening a shell. I have tried re-installing and restarting post install. Typing 
python or python3.6 into the terminal seems to launch Python successfully 
(details below). I am as new to coding as my son, please phrase any advice 
accordingly!

Thank you.
