[New-bugs-announce] [issue20869] IDLE lib error in IOBinding.py

[Domenico Mustara]

New submission from Domenico Mustara:

Not a new issue, many Python users have already written about this error. In line 128 of IOBinding.py file, please change 'str = str.split("\n", 2)[:2]" to "lst = str.split("\n", 2)[:2]". This error prevents IDLE from working correctly when a .py file is loaded. I use IDLE on Ubuntu 13.10. At every new update, I need to manually modify IOBinding.py file in /usr/lib/python2.7/idlelib directory. Please fix it. Thanks
