Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
In #36429, the 'else' branch that did not work was deleted. The reason __import__ is discouraged is the reason for the repetition of 'run', in the line kept, as explained above. However, since the line works, it is not a bug, and I now prefer to leave it alone. If someone disables it, IDLE will not start. del_exitf was added for Visual IDLE -- VIDLE (sp?) Investigating whether it is still needed and possible deleting it is another issue. So is deprecating starting with PyShell, or having pyshell as main running tests in a development setting. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug stage: needs patch -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue18330> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
