[Idle-dev] How to run selected statements in IDLE (Windows XP)?

[Roger Serwy]

Hi Wei Su,

This functionality seems like a good idea for IDLE, so I wrote an 
extension to execute selected statements. It can be found at   
http://www.ews.illinois.edu/~serwy/python/code/RunRegion.py

Place this file under lib/idlelib and then add these lines to 
config-extensions.def:

[RunRegion]
enable=1
enable_shell=0
[RunRegion_cfgBindings]
run-region=<Key-F9>

Regards,
Roger D. Serwy
