* Mensanator:
...because there's no [Options] menu on the shell window?

Or at least give me a clue to how to use Courier New font?

For some inscrutable reason, depite the plethora of formatting tools,
someone decided that proportional spaced fonts ought to be the
default for IDLE.

Why not just use the Python interpreter, a reasonable programmer's editor and, if you need it, some debugger.

The source code level debugging in IDLE is nothing to write home about.

In Windows XP it is just silly: it marks the current line by ordinary text selection, which (depending on your config, but I think this is default) is invisible when you're looking at the debugger window for single stepping. You can see it by switching back to the source code window but that's annoying, not very practical. Invisible highlighting of the current line, he he...
