[issue9262] IDLE: Use ttk.Notebook for tabbed windows

[Guilherme Polo]

Guilherme Polo  added the comment:

It is possible to create a tabbed window without ttk.Notebook. This is already 
being done in the configuration dialog. The real issue goes much beyond 
ttk.Notebook, check the patch "tabs_ttk_and_co.diff" at 
http://code.google.com/p/python-ttk/downloads/list for an earlier work on this 
(there is also a screenshot in the wiki over there showing the final result).

[issue9262] IDLE: Use ttk.Notebook for tabbed windows

[Terry J. Reedy]

New submission from Terry J. Reedy :

The addition of tabbed windows to web browsers was a great advance that is now 
standard. For Windows, it eliminated the crowding of the taskbar. I suspect it 
made switching easier on all systems.

The addition of the same to IDLE would have similar benefits. I often have a 
shell and two edit windows open.

This would require, I believe, the use of ttk.Notebook, which requires tcl/tk 
8.5+ or the Tile extension. Can this be made a requirement for IDLE in 3.2? 
Windows has 8.5 now. *nix users can add Tile if they have 8.4. I do not know 
the situation for Mac.
