[Pythonmac-SIG] IDE crash (original) (raw)

I have installed the Nov 7,2003 add ins from http://homepages.cwi.nl/~jack/macpython/. My IDE used to work. I foolishly was playing with menu options that I should not have played with, and now my IDE crashes immediately after starting.

The menu option I changed was the location of my scripts directory. I set it to a directory with no python scripts, and the IDE crashed.

It wouldn't restart.

I deleted my prefs file; I reinstalled the IDE. No luck.

This is the traceback from the console. If anyone can send me a prefs file that will fix my IDE, I would be much obliged.

Traceback (most recent call last):
