Are you telling me you're willing to search through a single
file containing 3,734 lines of code (yes, Tkinter) looking
for a method named "destroy" of a class named "OptionMenu"
(of which three other classes contain a method of the same
exact name!), when all you needed to do was open one single
module named "tk_optionmenu.py" and do a single search for
"def destroy"?

You must be trolling!

I have music software that's a single 9K-line Python module, which I
edit using Notepad++ or gedit. If I wish to find e.g. the method "edit"
of class "sequence" I can type
      <Ctrl-f>class seq<Return>def edit(<Return

This is not about "how to use a search function"

No, it's about your incredulity that someone would search for a method in a large file that contains several methods of the same name. However, the existence of search functions makes this completely trivial.
