Linux系统中已装Python 2.7.6，如何打开对应版本的IDLE？

Hey there! Let's get you up and running with the IDLE interface for Python 2.7.6 on your Linux system—here are a couple of simple, reliable methods:

1. Direct Terminal Command (Quickest Way) #

First, make sure the IDLE package for Python 2.7 is installed on your system.

• Check installation status: Open your terminal and run this command to see if it's already there:
  dpkg -l | grep idle-python2.7
  If you don't get any output, install it with this command (for Debian/Ubuntu-based distros):
  sudo apt-get install idle-python2.7
  For RPM-based systems like Fedora/CentOS, use:
  sudo dnf install python2-tools

• Launch IDLE: Once installed, just run this in your terminal to open the Python 2.7 IDLE:
  idle-python2.7
  Some systems might alias this as idle2—if the first command fails, give that a shot instead.

2. Create a Desktop Shortcut (For Convenience) #

If you don't want to type the terminal command every time, set up a desktop launcher:

• Open a text editor (like Gedit or Nano) and paste this content:

  [Desktop Entry]
  Name=IDLE Python 2.7
  Comment=Integrated Development Environment for Python 2.7.6
  Exec=idle-python2.7
  Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/python2.7.png
  Terminal=false
  Type=Application
  Categories=Development;IDE;
  

• Save the file as idle-python2.7.desktop in the ~/.local/share/applications/ directory.
• Make it executable with this terminal command:
  chmod +x ~/.local/share/applications/idle-python2.7.desktop

You should now find "IDLE Python 2.7" in your system's applications menu—click it to launch directly!
