Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment: Yes. As the webpage I mentioned describes Apple's installation of Tcl/Tk contains a number of serious bugs, one of which is that Tk's handling of dead keys (the "^" you use write "รป") causes crashes.
To get a fully functional copy of Idle you'll have to install ActiveState's Tcl/Tk as well. We could ship a copy of Tk in the installer as well, but have chosen not to do that because the installer is large enough as it is. Furthermore the Cocoa port of Tcl/Tk is at this time still a moving target, which means that we couldn't even ship the same version of Tcl/Tk for the entire lifetime of Python 3.2.x. Please let us know if installing ActiveState's Tcl/Tk fixes the crash, I expect it will but you might have run into yet another Tk bug. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14827> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
