1.2.2 Writing a Python Script
In addition to using the Python IDE interactively, you can
also type out a complete Python program, saving it incrementally, and
execute it or smaller selections of it.
You can create a new script, open a previously saved script, and save
your currently open script by selecting the appropriate item in the
``File'' menu. Dropping a Python script onto the
Python IDE will open it for editing.
When the Python IDE saves a script, it uses the creator code
settings which are available by clicking on the small black triangle
on the top right of the document window, and selecting ``save
options''. The default is to save the file with the Python
IDE as the creator, this means that you can open the file for editing
by simply double-clicking on its icon. You might want to change this
behaviour so that it will be opened by the
PythonLauncher, and run. To do this simply choose
``PythonLauncher'' from the ``save options''. Note that these
options are associated with the file not the application.
Release 2.4.5, documentation updated on 18 October 2006.
