Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Wanting to make sure that a patch does not break Idle makes perfect sense to me. As it turns out, running *any* code from the editor (even empty) works for these patches. Idle compiles the code to a code object *in the Idle process* and if no compile errors, ships the code object to the user process via rpc to be executed in the user process. I comfirmed this with a print inside pickle_code. With this clear, I have downloaded both patches to test on 2.7 and 3.4.
