python - IDLE crashes for certain buttons on Mac -
i running os x 10.9.5, , idle w/ python 3.4.1.
when press buttons (¨/^) or (´/`), idle crashes , program closes.
this causes me lose changes files, time. fellow students using mac experience same problem.
anyone know how can fix this?
i pretty sure version of tcl/tk using having problem non-us national keyboard (which country?) un-shifted, key produce non-ascii diacritic chars, ord(´)==180
, ord(¨)==168
, composed character.
the download page, @ bottom, directs osx users mac-tck/tk page. page says install activetcl 8.5.16.0 activestate. older tcl/tk 8.5.9 apple has problem composition chars has since been fixed
in meanwhile, start idle in console window python3 -m idlelib
(i think python3
correct name osx) , should see error messages should verify above. may solve problem of idle stopping.
