Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Hi Éric. Adding idle.py would make -m idle work. But I believe it would violate existing policy. So I will not propose it on python-ideas or pydev and hope no one else does either.
PEP 434, at least in part, formalized what I believe was older practice with respect to idlelib. I was surprised by the negative reaction that ensued and do not want a repeat. Raymond, I have considered this at length and see no prospect for a positive change at this time. This issue reminded me to open #31329, to index 'idlelib' and better document the options for starting IDLE.. ---------- priority: normal -> low resolution: -> later stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31319> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
