Ah, nice! Thanks for the tip.
And let me expand my distate to the font selection dialog box. UGH!
Cheers,

I think they must have found a co-op undergrad comp sci major to
write the *nix idlde. :)
I sure hope they hire a real programmer to do the next version.

Agreed, but don't limit your distaste to only the linux version! Pretty
much all of the Unix based versions "suck and blow". Although lack of
decent accellerated 3d support drove me from linux to the Evil OS, win-idlde
was a nice bonus.

I think this is due to your choice of font. I just fired up IDLDE on
Solaris and found that if I chaged the editor font from the default adobe to
a bitstream courier I lost my little r's.
Sorry I can't help with your other questions.
