You can use idle from the command line almost as easily as the CP
interpreter: 'python -m idlelib' instead of just 'python' (I just
tried it to verify). Unlike bare 'python', IDLE includes a grep. Right
click on any 'hit' and it opens the file at the specified line. Unlike
bare 'python', you can run tests and collect the all the output, from
as many tests as you want, in a dynamically right-sized buffer.
I'm just getting:
~$ python2.7 -m idlelib
/usr/bin/python2.7: No module named idlelib.__main__; 'idlelib' is a
package and cannot be directly executed
Same with python3...
...but thank you for talking about IDLE (the possibility of reediting
and using history it so easy that I'm going to give it a try at least
when I'm on windows...)
