IDLE Deployment to classroom - siwekp - May-14-2019
Hey, i've deployed Python 3.7.3 to a suite of computers, no problem there, the issue i have is getting the IDLE.bat file to run in a restricted environment.
by default CMD is disabled for students as standard, does anyone know of a way to either allow only this batch file to run, or another way to run IDLE ?
Thanks in advance.

Don't worry i fixed it myself by creating a shortcut and deploying that via GPO.
for anyone else in a similar situation here is the shortcut.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Python37-32\pythonw.exe" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python37-32\Lib\idlelib\idle.pyw"
happy days.

You might want to look at Geany, it's light and fast see: https://www.geany.org/
IDLE, even though it comes with python, is not a very good IDE.
