[Python-checkins] r62448 - in python/trunk/Lib/idlelib: NEWS.txt configHandler.py

[amaury.forgeotdarc]

Author: amaury.forgeotdarc
Date: Tue Apr 22 00:35:30 2008
New Revision: 62448

Log:
Issue 2665: On Windows, sys.stderr does not contain a valid file when running without a console.
It seems to work, but will fail at the first flush.

This causes IDLE to crash when too many warnings are printed.

Will backport.
