Redeem yourself by apologizing.
Apologize for what? For telling the truth? I have been using IDLE since around 2006, well at least, that is as far back as i remember. When i first learned Python, IDLE was my editor of choice, and i *STILL* use IDLE to this very day! -- although not as much as i have written my own IDE. I have logged thousands upon thousands of hours with IDLE, how many hours have *YOU* logged? I would even venture to say, and the comments on this list have supported my evidence for years, that i may be the *SOLE* heavy user of IDLE in the *ENTIRE* community. Although, i need to compare my stats with Terry because he claims to use the software quite often also. If *ANYBODY* in this damn community has a *RIGHT* to complain about IDLE, then *I* am that person. HOW DARE YOU chastise me for voicing my grievances regarding a software that *YOU* most likely have *NEVER*, or only *SLIGHTLY*, used! -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
