I frequently use IDLE as an interactive shell to Python with the Editor attached. It's very nice for this purpose as it's lightweight and embedded in Python delivery. This is only possible with -n flag as without it each press on F5 will restart the interpreter and I lose all variables, graphs etc.

Under 2.7 (not related to this thread) I'm also unable to use interactive graphs [ ion()] in matplotlib without the -n flag.

Is there another way to run the module without restarting interpreter without the -n option?

Will 2.7 be affected by this change in the future?
