R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Believe it or not, this is the documented behavior of Idle on all platforms. You have to specify -s to have PYTHONSTARTUP run.
See the last comment in Issue5594, and also the referenced issue 5233, which has a patch that apparently changes this behavior, although that isn't mentioned in that issue itself. I'm making this a feature request for changing the default behavior, to see what people think. ---------- components: -Windows nosy: +kbk, r.david.murray title: PYTHONSTARTUP broken on Windows -> PYTHONSTARTUP is not run by default when Idle is started type: behavior -> feature request versions: +Python 3.2 -Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8378> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
