Personally, I don't edit source files in IDLE - I use SciTE or another editor for that. IDLE is, to me, an interactive Python session and nothing more. I find it better than command-line Python because it recalls entire blocks of code; it's not a superior editor to one that can do every language I want all in one window. ChrisA
