python-idle

I am using IDLE to learn Python 2.7 on Windows 7. The Vertical scroll bar works fine but I cannot find a way to activate the Horizontal scroll bar. Is there a horizontal scroll bar in Python's IDLE? Thanks Amber Horizontal Scroll Bars for IDLE from http://code.activestate.com/lists/python-list/26878/ ( not my code , found it on this site) It is dated Wed, 08 Mar 2000 Works for Python 2.6 but I can't get to work in 2.7. I get an error saying that the file is open some where. For me, the file he is talking about is located in:C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.1\Lib\idlelib It will be different if you do not

I'm using imaplib2 ( docs ) to interact with an IMAP server. I'm using the idle command, with a timeout and a callback. The problem is, I don't see any way of telling if the callback was triggered by the timeout being reached, or if there was a change on the server that I need to check out. I just get ('OK', ['IDLE terminated (Success)']) every time. Here's the debug output for both cases: Timedout: 15:43.94 MainThread server IDLE started, timeout in 5.00 secs 15:48.94 imap.gmail.com handler server IDLE timedout 15:48.94 imap.gmail.com handler server IDLE finished 15:48.94 imap.gmail.com

I use Python 3.6.1 IDLE. I'd like to be able to run a sequence of scripts while maintaining the local environment (variables etc.) just as if I had entered all the commands line by line into the shell. However, whenever I execute a script the environment restarts and I lose all the variables from previous executions. Is there anything I can do to prevent this restart? I don't want to have to type things line by line in the shell. This question is similar to Run a module in IDLE (Python 3.4) without Restart but there's no convincing answer yet, maybe because the question is worded confusingly.

Is it using listbox? context-menu? inserting widgets within text? something else? Also, is there some documentation about how IDLE functions? Which python files do what, etc? The autocompletewindow is a tk Toplevel with a Listbox and Scrollbar . Code is in idlelib/AutoCompleteWindow.py (and associated code in AutoComplete.py). The Idle doc gives a user view of Idle. There is no doc giving a programmer view of idlelib. (I wish there had been one when I started with Idle. Now that I understand what most of the files do, I should write something.) EDIT: Tk and Toplevel widgets are located with

I am working on a super simple socket program and I have code for the client and code for the server. How do I run both these .py files at the same time to see if they work ? You can run multiple instances of IDLE/Python shell at the same time. So open IDLE and run the server code and then open up IDLE again, which will start a separate instance and then run your client code. 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15329649/how-to-run-two-modules-at-the-same-time-in-idle

In IDLE on Windows, on the menu bar, there is a Shell menu. One of the items on the Shell menu is 'Restart Shell'. The Shell menu is not available in IDLE on Linux. The Restart Shell command is useful after you have made a change in a module and want to run the module again in the shell. In IDLE on Linux, I have to close IDLE and open it again for the shell to notice the change in the module. How can I restart the shell without closing and reopening IDLE as a whole? If you want the changes in module to be visible, just call something like that (where my_module is your module you updated):
