> What is a 'DE'? DE stands for Desktop Environment, usually they come with a number of packages (mainly GUI) such as window managers, login managers, toolbars, theming, etc. Some of the popular ones include Gnome, Plasma, Mate and LXDE. Usually anything related to appearance and GUI behavior is more closely tied to the DE than the Linux distro itself. Optionally, users can also create their own cocktail of a desktop environment, but in my experience that usually leads to more compatibility issues. > If so, this should be closed as 3rd party.

Hmm, it looks like setting the path object to codecontext.py didn't fix the issue, but either way, it looks like the issue is directly tied with tk_getOpenFile as you suspected and not the IDLE. I'm not overly familiar with tk in general since most of my experience with Python has not involving building GUIs. I'll probably spend some time messing around with tk to see if I can fix the issue. Thanks for looking into it. Should I leave it open to get feedback from the tkinter devs since the bypass didn't fix the issue? I'll add gpolo to the nosy list since he's listed as a tkinter expert and remove IDLE from the title. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37693> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
