I tend to edit with idle, then Alt+Tab to the open folder and hit enter on the file I'm editing. This way I can edit, save, alt+tab, enter - it runs, alt+tab, edit, etc. Jacob Schmidt PS Running Windows XP, -and- I don't know if this helps but - the file association on edit with idle is as follows "C:\python24\pythonw.exe" "c:\python24\lib\idlelib\idle.pyw" -n -e "%1" %* The file association might affect how idle interacts, say, whether it shuts down or not... If idle thinks that -n or -e is a call to shut down after running (it's a shot in the dark) HTH > > John Brawley wrote: > >>>From: Bruce Sherwood <Bru...@nc...> >>>Subject: Re: [Visualpython-users] Re: horror story >>> >>>On the exit issue: This is two different issues, not one.
