So what you're saying is run IDLE separately from my program (don't
click on "Edit With IDLE") and doing something. I don't know what you
mean- cutting and pasting the program into it? It can't be hitting F5
because that opens a new IDLE window. What DO you mean? Anyway, that
seems harder than just running the program by clicking on its file
(i.e. double click "program.py").
You open code in IDLE just like you open text documents in every GUI
text editor you've ever used.
You click on File and then Load, then you browse to the directory of
where your file is, and double click it.
Once your code is loaded, you can hit F5 to execute it.
No, this is not slower, because you do this _once_ when you start
editing your program, and from then on , you just execute the code with F5.
The only difference than how you're doing it now is that you start IDLE
without the right-click.
Once you're in IDLE, it works the same as before.
You don't have to reload the code every time you want to run it, you
just hit F5.
