Are you grade school (1=12)? undergraduate (Freshman-Senior)? post-graduate (from whatever)? New freshman (starting college this fall) 2. Are you beginner (1st class, maybe 2nd depending on intensity of first)? post-beginner? Post-beginner (I'd call myself intermediate, but not expert) 3. With respect to programming, are you amateur (unpaid) professional (paid for programming) Amateur and programming just for convenience and fun (like Sibylle) PS: I actually don't use Idle very often, except to solve Project Euler problems because it works well for that. Most of the time I use PyDev and Notepad++ to edit Python code, but if more features were added to Idle I would consider using it more. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
