Need Help on IDLE start up
Hello I have install Python 2.5 under an user directory "/user/dtgtools/packages/python/2.5" after installation python works ok. but when I try "idle" I have the following Error message: ** IDLE can't import Tkinter. Your Python may not be configured for Tk. ** I have read the README file it mentions the setup.py script should take care of the TCl/TK setup. but I wonder because our TCL/TCL is install under "/user/dtgtools/packages/TCL/8.4" how can I let ./configure know where to find Tcl/TK ? when installing Python. Thanks in advance! Tony Ha. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: How to pass an argument to a python program open in IDLE?
Hello Josh,
Thanks for the reply. But I am not sure I understand your reply, may be
I need to explain my problem a bit more. I have a Python script which
needs an input argument to run.
e.g. python myscript.py xilinx. which run fine.
My problem is this: When I start IDLE GUI, then I open my script with
the edit window. (i.e.
File -> open). I run my script under the edit window using run -> run
module or F5. But IDLE does not allow me to input the argument to my
script, i.e. IDLE runs without prompting for the argument, then my
script fails. I wonder how can I pass the argument to my script under
IDLE?

Can any one help > with the problem? Thanks in advance ! > > Tony Ha. I have the following reply from the creator of PyPE (Josiah Carlson). The solution for running PyPE2.1 from the source is: "replacing line 1152 with the following 4 lines: if isinstance(v, dict): self.config[nam][k] = dict(v) else: self.config[nam][k] = v " Once I done the replacement as suggested above, PyPE2.1 can run from the source now.
