Eli Bendersky <eli...@gmail.com> added the comment: Attaching an initial patch for Lib/idlelib/PyShell.py
It uses subprocess.Popen instead of spawn&kill, in the way discussed in earlier messages. As far as I can tell, IDLE opens and restarts shells successfully, without leaving zombies behind. I only tested it on Windows, however, and due to the lack of unit tests for idlelib there wasn't much verification done. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file22799/issue12540.1.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12540> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
