At one time I could not run a skit in IDLE nor with the command line.
IDLE gave error messages because (Alan G. says) of the 3 chevrons.
The command opened into a wee square & issued only error messages.
Then the command line opened into a 4x7 box and worked perfectly.
IDLE also now works perfectly, whether I open into IDLE or edit window.
Below is a copy/paste:
IDLE 2.6
>>> i = 9
>>> while i > 2:
print i
i -= 1
9
8
7
6
5
4
3
>>>
just so, with no adjustments
