[issue15853] IDLE crashes selecting Preferences menu with OS X ActiveState Tcl/Tk 8.5.12.1
Pedro Meirelles added the comment:
Hello,
I am biologist I am just starting to learn Python.
I have a mac and I am using OS X 10.8.2. I have installed Python 2.7.3 and when
I try to copy and paste (use command) or go to preferences IDLE crashes. I did
what Ned Deily said in msg169739:
sudo mv /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework /Library/Frameworks/Tk_disabled
It worked. Now I can copy and paste in IDLE. But when I type quots (" or ') it
crashes.
What you think I can do to work in IDLE using both command and typing " and '?
Sorry if my question is too elementary.
I appreciate a lot all the comments and answers. It is very useful and
enlightening.
Kind regards
