2. Another problem is that the Python shell is allowing me to copy/paste
any code at all.  Is there something I am not doing right?

I was able to copy from idle using Ctrl-C and paste to my newreader
using Ctrl-V
and then copy from my newsreader back to idle using the same
procedure.  I am
using Linux and you seem to be using Windows may be it works
differently so I
can't help you with it.

If Ctrl-C & Ctrl-V don't work, try shift-Ctrl-C & shift-Ctrl-V, or using
the contextual menu with right-click. Anyway, in my view an interactive
interpreter is annoying for anything but using python as a pocket
calculator. If you feel like me, you may instead having a python trial
file always open (as a tab) in your favorite editor, and do most all
your trials there (instead of through the interpretor). This allow all
doing editing, modifications, variants... you like. Much better in my view.

Actually this is what I do also if the example I am looking at is more than a line or two. When I am done with one example I just comment it out and move on to the next one.

regards,  Jim
