Thanks for the report.  As much as possible, IDLE and the underlying Tk GUI 
toolkit it is built with try go conform to the interface guidelines of the 
platform (e.g. Windows, OS X, Unix X11) it is running on.  On OS X, application 
configuration options are expected to be found in a "Preferences" menu option 
under the application menu (the second menu item in the single menu bar at the 
top of the screen) and that is what happens with IDLE on OS X, rather than 
having "Options" -> "Configure IDLE" in the window menu bars as on other 
platforms.  It also has the standard OS X keyboard shortcut of CMD-Comma.  The 
IDLE documentation in the Standard Library doc set and the IDLE help file 
should be updated to note this and other platform differences.
