New submission from Mitchell Model <m...@acm.org>:
The main thing the patch does is:
modify the subprocess restart procedure so that it reloads
whatever file, if any, was loaded when IDLE first started and looked for
IDLESTARTUP then PYTHONSTARTUP environment variables.
In addition:
a -q option is added for starting IDLE on the command line to
mean "quiet", as with Emacs, e.g., to suppress loading of IDLESTARTUP or
PYTHONSTARTUP
The former effect of -s would now be the default, which is
desirable so double-clicking an IDLE icon to start it will cause the
startup file to run.
-s is changed to take an argument that is an alternate startup
file to use
I am a bit concerned about changing -s to have a different meaning.
Perhaps it's better to leave -s as an option that is simplhy superfluous
and use a different letter for the alternate startup.
