So trying out Idle...
Some specific and some general questions:
My audience consists of people having linux and windows and macbooks.
Does Idle run on all these?
If macbook runs OSX, and the linux has recent tcl/tk installed, the
answer should be Yes
[Remember seeing some adventures with Tkinter...]
One may have to install activestate tkc/tk on mac, depending on osx
version. This page has details:

Particularly with macs my knowledge is at the level:
"How the ^%*)( do you right click without a right-click button?"
I believe control-click, but Macs users could say better.
So I would like to avoid something that is not quite working.
Specific:
Is there a way to cut-paste a snippet from the interpreter window
containing ">>> " "... " into the file window and auto-remove the prompts?
[I have a vague recollection of Terry showing somethin...]
I doubt I said anything. I have said there is a tracker issue for the
feature (something similar to dedent). I would like to add a general
facility for users to define reformat/transform functions to do
precisely what they want. In particular, what to do with output lines?
