Hello James, I actually want to trash IDLE and start over. I would be willing to do a complete re-write. I have already made a template GUI that works (early stages). I am wondering if anyone else might be interested in taking this on with me? IMO IDLE is full of fluff where it should not be, and thin where it should be fat. Trim off the fat and lean this puppy up! I like that in ActiveState's version you can delete as much text as you want. IDLE won't allow it.
I want a better setup for extensions, and complete control of mouse and key bindings for the user. We need to clean the dust off and polish IDLE up a bit. If not, i will just write up a simplified version it for myself. I just thought someone out there may be thinking like i am. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
