I finally found out where I was wrong: leafpad is _not_ the default choice
in IDLE, IDLE has its own built in editor and IDLE does not allow to use
another editor. The confusion stemmed from the properties I got when right
clicking on the IDLE-icon on the raspbian desktop, which shows "Open with"
and then suggests the default choice is Leafpad and Geany as a second
choice, it has however nothin to do with IDLE as such.

kind regards,
jean
