Summary: Hangs when opening 2nd shell with subprocess under windows
Initial Comment:
The Python 2.3.3 windows installer sets a file
association for .py files - 'edit with IDLE'.
It sets this up to launch IDLE with the command line '-n'
which is *without* a subprocess.
I set up a new file association to launch IDLE with
subprocess enabled. If IDLE ever attempts to open a
second shell window with subprocess it hangs and I
have to kill the process.
Is this a known limitation or a bug (?) - if the latter
why does the installer default to using the -n flag.
I asked on comp.lang.python and surprisingly got no
answer - perhaps the time of year has something to do
with it. :-)

This is a known limitation. Currently only one subprocess may
exist because only one port is used. I plan to expand this in
the future.
Recommend you stay with the default binding.
This duplicates IDLEfork Patch 661363. Closing as dup.
