I really encourage some updates for IDLE, thanks for your offer.
Definitely check out the README in the idle_test folder, and forward
any hiccups you encounter to the list so that we can document them for
future contributors.

The standard Python Windows distribution comes with Tcl/Tk 8.6.1, Mac doesn’t include it (need to install ActiveTcl separately), and the source tarball doesn’t include it. I don’t know of any recent Linux distros that don’t package 8.5.x or 8.6.x with their Python/tkinter packages. Tkinter talks to (I believe) 8.4.x and up.
