Subject: bpo-32984: IDLE - set __file__ for startup files (GH-5981)
X-Git-Tag: v3.7.0b3~99
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=fd340bf9e308130736c76257ff9a697edbeb082d;p=python

bpo-32984: IDLE - set __file__ for startup files (GH-5981)


Like Python, IDLE optionally runs one startup file in the Shell window
before presenting the first interactive input prompt.  For IDLE,
option -s runs a file named in environmental variable IDLESTARTUP or
PYTHONSTARTUP; -r file runs file.  Python sets __file__ to the startup
file name before running the file and unsets it before the first
prompt.  IDLE now does the same when run normally, without the -n
option.
(cherry picked from commit 22c82be5df70c3d51e3f89b54fe1d4fb84728c1e)
