python - Ghost variable "idle" in terminal/cygwin? -


i cannot figure out where, how, or why variable "idle" has been set.

  • it not in alias
  • it isn't in .bashrc file
  • it isn't in path
  • it isn't user-entered variable, because doesn't show when execute this: ( set -o posix ; set ) | less

but, when type cygstart idle somehow program still starts. why this?

something curious when execute idle, i.e. without cygstart command, attempts execute python file. ideas might going on?

perhaps looking suggestions how investigate, since realize there might other problems specific machine. thanks.

since 3.4, psf cpython windows installers put /scripts in pythonxy directory. pip , easy-install pre-installed in scripts. when pip used install packages, associated executables put in corresponding /scripts. if pythonxy default python installation, pythonxy/scripts added system path , idle.bat added. (at least, happened on machine.) yes, command prompt> idle should work describe, @ least 3.4.
