I don't know much about Python (in fact, I'm a noob) so not understanding much of the technical lingo. I've installed Python 3.2, and Active TCL 8.5.9 on my machine. IDLE crashes at random points - compiling, saving, loading or even just typing! Why is this? What can i do to get it working? There is no error message, I just get my spinning beach ball and then I have to force quit the program, so it doesn't seem to be anything official. Any help at all would be great, I really need to get this going for my thesis project!

Hello,
The Python issue tracker is not here to get help.
You will have better answers from friendly people if you ask your question on the comp.lang.python newsgroup, or the python-list mailing list: http://www.python.org/community/lists/
