For someone who says he doesn't know Lisp, you seem to be doing just fine. :-) Not sure if there would be side-effects. Note that py-execute-string, py-execute-buffer, py-execute-def-or-class all use py-execute-region. Their behaviour may be altered by your change. But it would be easy to test. If you did encounter a problematic side-effect, you could define your own "py-execute-region-custom" as a copy of py-execute-region but with the (pop-to-buffer) call removed. Then use (require 'python-mode) ;; if you're putting this in .emacs (define-key py-mode-map "\C-c|" 'py-execute-region-custom) to redefine the keyboard mapping. (The (require 'python-mode) call ensures that the py-mode-map variable has been initialized.) You could provide an alternate mapping for your new function, of course. If you put the custom function and your define-key call both in your .emacs file, then you can easily port it to other machines (perh. easier than maintaining a patch for python-mode).
