Could be.  If you aren't using any special features from IDLE (other
than the interactiveness, of course) then may I suggest using the
command line?  If you are using windows, get cygwin.  Bash is far
superior to DOS.

My technique tends to be one of using (g)vim to edit and an "xterm"
(ok, so I'm on windows too now, it's a DOS-term with cygwin) to
run/test.  If it fails I can simply type "!![enter]" to execute the
command again.  This is much easier and faster than hunting down idle
in the start menu and then setting it up again.
