[issue19484] Idle crashes when opening file

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily added the comment:

Double-clicking on a .py may not be opening the file with the right version of IDLE.  OS X maintains the associations between file types, based on file characteristics like the extension (e.g. ".py"), and applications.  To select exactly which application to open a file, rather than double-clicking on it, click on it once to select it then use control-click to being up a context menu and use "Open With" to select the 2.7.6 version of IDLE.  You can also use the Finder's Get Info command to change application associations for a particular file or for all files of a particular type.  The details of all of this vary slightly depending on OS X release.
