HOME is simply not a standard environment variable that Windows provides. Any program can set/add environment variables as it deems fit; in this case it seems IDLE is setting one, but you can't rely on it outside of IDLE. If you do os.environ["HOMEDRIVE"] + os.environ["HOMEPATH"] it may be what you want. Start up cmd.exe, type 'set' -- that's the default/standard environment variables you have to work with. That's it. --S
