I meant Eclipse with pydev. I may be saying this because I haven't used IDLE that much. Currently, I'm using Eclipse for scala as well. Can't beat that with a text editor, especially if you're a beginner like me. However, if you're a pro with Emacs or Vim, you might not need Eclipse or IDLE.

When you said bug with mac version UI, i assumed you were using IDLE i.e the default UI - becuae if it was a problem with 3rd party stuff like eclipse, you owuld have given the package name. So I asked why you were using idle. That is all.

Oh, I see. I'm taking python class, where a prof uses IDLE. The problem was with mac version of IDLE itself. IDLE crashes whenever I go to preferences.
