IDLE using 2.6 Python having erros generating module list
« on: April 12, 2012, 11:05:29 AM »
Warning (from warnings module):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/__init__.py", line 127
    set_interactive(1)
RuntimeWarning: PyOS_InputHook is not available for interactive use of PyGTK
Above is the following error that is generated when trying to generate a list of modules being available to python 2.6. I would go in at the command line and type help(). the help cursor show up and I type "modules" to generate a list and this is the error I get. Does anyone else have this effect?
Thanks
kever

As far as I can tell, IDLE is not in the PCLinuxOS repositories. Packages installed from outside the official repositories are not supported. There are other Python IDEs in the repositories, such as drpython and eric.

IDLE is part of tkinter, which is located in the PCLinuxOS Repositories.

I stand corrected. Thank you.

I have /usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/_tkinter.so installed. I see a lot of python and other files in the /usr/lib/python2.6/idlelib directory. How do I start the IDLE editor?
