Hi all, Been trying to get the latest version of VPython working in my laptop. I successfully compiled the source and installed using Python 2.6. The problem is after I ran my VPython script using IDLE, and close the VPython window, my IDLE exited at the same time. I tried running using command line python; the python exited when I closed the VPython also. The same thing happened if I used IPython. While I now used VIDLE to run my VPython script, is this considered some kind of bug or it is just me doing something wrong somewhere? Thanks in advance. -- Regards, THChew |

Dear Bruce, Thanks for the feedback. I just check, the default shortcut of IDLE Python 2.6 Ubuntu 9.04 (which I was using all the while) is "/usr/bin/idle-python2.6 -n". Does the "-n" switch has something to do with my problem? When running the same script using VIDLE, I didn't face any problem at all. By the way, if I run my idle-python2.6 without the "-n" switch, the problem solved. Thanks. On Sat, May 30, 2009 at 1:12 AM, Bruce Sherwood <Bru...@nc...>wrote: > How do you start IDLE?
