IDLE is the default IDE for Python. The XO has a very limited Python viewer and editor Pippy. There is a more advanced environment Develop under development.

I decided to try to get the IDLE environment working on the XO. I wanted an XO based Python IDE that I could use to show Python code, and which would allow intermediate level development directly on the XO. As Develop matures this will probably no longer be necessary.

What's already there

Tkinter

Font issues

IDLE under Sugar

IDLE under XFCE
