[issue24782] Merge 'configure extensions' into main IDLE config dialog

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Thanks, that was it. I actually want to not use the scroll bar unless needed for an extension with more than 15 or so settings, but that is another patch. Ditto for the list of extensions. This looks OK for now. --

Mark Roseman added the comment: The extra width appears to be coming from the canvas inside VerticalScrolledFrame; the canvas gets the default size and the frame adjusts to fit its contents (the canvas and the scrollbar). If you really want to reduce the size, add a "-width" option where that

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Nice. The only changes I had to make other than a doc change are 'Settings tab' to 'Extensions tab' and deletion of an line-ending space that got added in editing the extension doc string. We both need to remember to strip trailing whitespace, as it causes

New submission from Mark Roseman: I'm wondering about moving the functionality of the 'configure extensions' dialog into the main configuration dialog. As I don't know the history here, I'm wondering why it was made separate. My proposal would be to add an 'Extensions' tab in the main config
