Re: running IDLE from another program?

If I want to write my code in a separate text editor (I like UltraEdit) but then press a single button to have that code run in the IDLE environment, is that possible? I know that you can configure UE to run external tools, but I can't figure out how to run IDLE this way, because when I check on its properties to find it's file path, it is just the Python directory itself.

You probably don't need to do that. Just run the file in python directly. I don't know UE, but when you configure an external tool, tell it to run python.exe and pass the current file as a command line parameter.
