idle (newbee's question)

[Helmut Jarausch]

Sorry, I feel this is a super FAQ, but I haven't
found an answer.
Having edited a file in IDLE I would like to `pass it' to python
for syntax checking. Is there anything shorter (eg a button press or a 
keycode) than switching to the Python-console and entering
execfile('long path to this file') ?

Thanks for a hint
