[New-bugs-announce] [issue5817] Right-click behavior from Windows Explorer

[Michael Kopinsky]

New submission from Michael Kopinsky <mkopinsky at gmail.com>:

When I right-click on a .py file in Windows Explorer and click Edit with
IDLE, it currently opens a completely new instance of IDLE (with two
windows, one for shell and one for editing the file). It would be better
if it just opened the file as an additional window in the already
running IDLE instance (assuming IDLE is already running).
