This sounds like a failing of the OP's window-manager. Fluxbox lets me combine any number of windows into a tabbed interface, so IDLE *is* a tabbed editor on my machine (just like the Gimp). Moreover, it can even include other windows, so I just pulled together a tabbed IDLE interface that also has a terminal for interacting with git, a file-manager window for project management, and a mail window (because Zawinski's law[1]). ;-) -tkc [1] """ Every program attempts to expand until it can read mail.
