I bet folks knew that once I got Idle up, I'd have commets :-)

The font size for help is too small for me. I can successfully change the
font size in the main window, so that's fine, but it didn't affect the font
size for the help.

I took a look at the Idle-dev mailing list, but with at least two spam
messages a month in the last three months of archives, my reaction is that
that's totally unacceptable, so I quickly unsubscribed.

Many thanks,

Gary

    You propobably would have to modify textView.py. See the CreateWidgets
    method of the TextViewer class. You could add a font option to
    self.textView...

    Thanks. I had to dig through a ton of stuff on tkinter, and tried all
    sorts of permutations until I was able to get it to work, and then get it
    to work for the debugger as well. But it's ok now.

    I suspect my other gripe isn't nearly as easy, namely I really want it all
    in one window. It's a rough tradeoff between using emacs to do most of the
    editing, and then using IDLE for debugging and minor editing. But it's
    just too darn difficult to find the right text window in IDLE, plus it
    forces me to change my visual focus. But that's for another time.
