Category: IDLE Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: projecktzero (projecktzero) >Assigned to: Kurt B. Kaiser (kbk) Summary: IDLE and old color themes Initial Comment: After uninstalling Python 2.3.4 on my Windows 2000 workstation, I installed Python 2.4. Unfortunately, IDLE refused to start up. I would just see some hard drive activity, then nothing. Getting some help from the tutor list(Danny Yoo), I was told to try... import idlelib.PyShell idlelib.PyShell.main() from the Python command prompt. IDLE fired up, but it complained about my color theme(which I had created in Python 2.3.4). Unfortunately, I do not have the errors/warnings. I deleted the color theme from IDLE, and now IDLE fires up without issue. The color theme must have been left over from Python 2.3.4. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Kurt B.

There should not be any incompatiblility between 2.3.4 and 2.4 regarding the color themes. It's too bad you didn't save the error messages. Could you describe exactly what you mean by "I deleted the color theme?" . What files or parts of files were removed? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1080387&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
