Python IDLE equivalent of CTRL-R in R

If you have a script open in the Windows version of R, you can r开发者_StackOverflow中文版un a line (or section of highlighted code) in the shell by hitting CTRL-R (believe it's command-enter in apple version). Is there similar functionality for IDLE? Many thanks

No

In the shortcut key list in IDLE, in Options > Configure IDLE > Keys, in the Action - Key(s) list, one does not find any shortcut key for executing selected code.

IDLE with IdleX supports the ability to run a single line of code or a selection by pressing F9. It also has subCodes which allows you to run code in between '##' comments. It has the same effect as highlighting a lot of code for execution, but you don't need to keep highlighting each time.

If you type part of your search string before hitting Alt+P, then Alt+P will find only items starting with what you typed.
