Hi,

I am trying to use IDLE somewhat like Emacs. I can't use Emacs
because some of Numpy Code will stop and kill the shell on Emacs when
certain errors occur. Not to mention IDLE is a lot lighter.
Every time I hit F5 or 'Edit|Run module' I get an output window. I
want to get the run results and direct to shell like Emacs' C-c C-c,
instead of getting an output window.
for exaple: if I have following in Editor and press F5
import os
I would like to see following working on the shell:
>> dir(os)

Any help would be much appreciated!

Guido is working hard to close the gap <wink>.

The current CVS IDLE has distinct "run script" and "import module" cmds.
The former is much closer to pymode C-c C-c, although you still need to
explicitly save the file before running it. Eventually I suppose it will
grow "run region" etc subcommands too.

Yes, works fine with the new "run script" cmd. Any output produced by the
script is also written to the shell window -- the separate output windows
are gone.
