Hello, On WinXP IDLE will always 'open' in Python24 folder at startup. A beginner friend of mine hate that (personally I use SPE) and I tried 'quickly' to find a way to configure that for him. I found all the .cfg files in idlelib and also the .idlerc folder in the "Documents and settings" but I don't see how to give IDLE a default directory at startup (or kipping in memory the last one opened). How to do that or is it just not possible ? Thanks learner404 ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
