Fixing IDLE with pygame issues. Re: [pygame] help

["René Dudfield" <renesd@xxxxxxxxx>]

hi,

try running your code from a terminal... you'll find it much nicer.

Then you can try using something like ipython which is very cool.  Much like an IDE without a text editor, but you'll have to try it to see it's awesomeness.

IDLE + pygame have issues.  Other IDE's can run pygame stuff fine, however IDLE requires these weird hacks.  Maybe they can be fixed on the pygame side... but not sure.  Anyone have any ideas on how we could either supply a patch to IDLE, or patch pygame to fix it?

cheers,

     I love python and pygame cause the language itself is so easy, but for me

setting up the IDE is far more complicated than i would of hoped, maybe

thats where my problem is(forgot to put somthing in a folder, set a path, ect)

I may just stick with C++, yea the language is harder but at least setting up

to code is not as painstaking, then again it mightbe worth the trouble  idk.......

 

Anyways thanks guys for helping, i should get more familar with the enviroment

before i waste your time.

 

Peace Love and Harmony

You could try upgrading to pygame 1.8.1.

Has anyone else had this problem with Python 2.6?
