This is the error message.
What happens if you rename
$HOME/.idlerc/recent-files.lst
For me, on Win7, $HOME is C:/Users/Terry
(to an arbitrary name, just to keep it around for further debugging if the
file indeed triggers the problem)?
Or try the following in the console with the file name changed, but
without the first line wrapped
with open('C:/Users/Terry/.idlerc/recent-files.lst', encoding='utf-8') as f:
for n, line in enumerate(f):
print(n, line, end='')
There was a (non-obvious) bug, recently fixed in
http://bugs.python.org/issue19020
which caused this seemingly bogus error message when an entry in
recent-files.list contained a directory or file name beginning with '0'.
H:\HP_Documents\0PythonWork\AirplaneKinematics\accel2.py
caused this message
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xc0 in position 14:

If your file has such a line, either delete it or upgrade to 3.3.4 (rc1,
final soon) or 3.4.0 (rc1 due soon).
