That rooted out the problem. A while ago, I changed the colors to kind

idlelib.PyShell.main(), IDLE came up with my custom color theme.
However, there was a bunch of warnings about my theme. From IDLE, I
deleted the theme. Now IDLE will launch normally. I'll set up the color
theme later. Maybe older color themes aren't compatible with the newer
IDLE? The color theme must have been laying around. I didn't brute force
it in or anything like that.
Hi Mike,
Ah, whew, I'm glad that actually worked. *grin*
The information about the color theme problem is valuable to know: can you send a message to the IDLE developers with a summary of the situation? It's possible that a lot of other folks might be running into a similar startup problem. Let's make sure that no one else has to go through hoops to get IDLE working again. The IDLE development list is:

Good luck to you!
Hi Danny,
I put in a bug report on the python sourceforge site. The idle-dev mail list didn't seem appropriate. It seems like a mail list for idle developers to discuss the IDLE development plan not for users to post about bugs.
Thanks again for your help on this issue.
