I was delighted with the behaviour of IDLE in version 3.4 until I noticed the problem of the matches with the non highlighted background in the modified (and in this sense improved) iterative text search operations. I was wondering how could this be possible at all in the present luxuriant stage of Python's evolution when now I see that this is a very old and probably cronic problem! What a pity! I have tried to test your SearchBar extension, Tal, but, after following the installation instructions of the README file, no bar appears at all in the editor window as well in version 3.3 as in 3.4 (WIndows7). As the process is not that difficult, I think that I am performing it correctly. Any idea of what can be wrong in spite of it? Thanks.

I have tried to test your *SearchBar* extension, Tal, but, after following
the installation instructions of the *README* file, no bar appears at all
in the editor window as well in version 3.3 as in 3.4 (WIndows7). As the
process is not that difficult, I think that I am performing it correctly.
Any idea of what can be wrong in spite of it?

Thanks.
