+.B IDLE
+is an Integrated DeveLopment Environment for Python. IDLE is based on
+Tkinter, Python's bindings to the Tk widget set. Features are 100% pure
+Python, multi-windows with multiple undo and Python colorizing, a Python
+shell window subclass, a debugger. IDLE is cross-platform, i.e. it works
+on all platforms where Tk is installed.
