IDLE 2.7.11/12 “NameError: global name 'Toplev

问题:

I ran APT-GET update on a Debian based OS on Oracle VB. While it was running I messed around with some python code in IDLE 2.7.12 (I opened it with a terminal). After it finished updating, I tried saving my code. In the terminal that I opened IDLE with I got an error. It says this:

root@kali:~# idle

Idle opens, I load my code, I edit my code, then I click [FILE] [SAVE]

This happens

Exception in Tkinter callback

    self.root = top = Toplevel(master)
NameError: global name 'Toplevel' is not defined

I have already tried restarting the VB, and I've uninstalled, autocleaned, then re-installed IDLE with no luck.

回答1:

The problem is a bug in the updated version of IDLE. Add the following near the top of .../Lib/idlelib/IOBinding.py, for instance before import tkFileDialog.

from Tkinter import *

The NameError occured in a function that displays a warning with the following message:

Non-ASCII found, yet no encoding declared. Add a line like
-*- coding: <enc> -*-
Choose OK to save this file as <enc>
Edit your general options to silence this warning

where <enc> will be an encoding such as utf-8.

It occurs to me that the message might be more helpful for beginners if it pointed to the Python Language Reference, Section 2.1.4., Encoding declarations

This bug is 2.x specific because in Python3, utf-8 is the default used in the absence of an encoding declaration.

回答2:

open IDLE.
Options
Configure IDLE
General
set 'Default Source Encoding' : UTF-8

I'm running Python 2.7.12 on Windows 10 and also Ubuntu 16.04 this solved my save/crash IDLE issue on both OS's .

Why do I get the feeling they are trying to throw us off Python 2 to 3 ?! jk.
