[issue20580] IDLE should support platform-specific default config defaults

Ned Deily added the comment: "I have the impression from what you wrote above that every 'Control' should be 'Command'." I'm not sure where I gave that impression but, no, the default IDLE keyset on OS X has command accelerators with Command- modifiers and some with Control- modifiers, as is

[issue20580] IDLE should support platform-specific default config defaults

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Ned, looking at config-keys.def, the Mac and Osx sections have a mixture of 'Command' and 'Control'. I have the impression from what you wrote above that every 'Control' should be 'Command'. Why are the sections as they are? --

[issue20580] IDLE should support platform-specific default config defaults

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: While I like the fact that my font choice is used by 3 installed and 4 built pythons, I am beginning to see possible version problems. In #5594 I propose adding a Startup tab to Idle preferences, but doing so will require carefully checking that the

[issue20580] IDLE should support platform-specific default config defaults

Ned Deily added the comment: I have presumed the the appropriate selections are made for other systems. As far as I know, there is nothing in IDLE itself to do that. As I noted earlier, there is a kludge in the Mac Makefile to edit config-main.def and config-extensions.def during installs of

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: You appear to be saying that even though some of the per system defaults you want are present, they are not automatically used, but users must go into the options dialog to select bindings other than Windows. Correct? And you would like to change this? The

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I am not completely sure what you are asking. Config-keys.def has 4 Idle Classic sections, one each for Windows, Unix, Mac (still needed?), and OSX. On my Windows install, the one for Windows is preselected. I have presumed the the appropriate selections are

[issue20580] IDLE should support platform-specific default config defaults

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: From what you have said here and on the other issue, reality has outgrown the current customization methods. If Python, Tk, and Idle were to run on Windows RT, I presume a different configuration would be needed than for normal desktop. Any new scheme used
