At Guido's request, I've carried out the same update to the IDLE distributed with Python 2.7 that I submitted for Python 3, to incorporate the work of Guilherme Polo in the Google Summer of Code 2009. Guido was concerned that with significant problems reported for IDLE 2.7, there should be an update despite Python 2.7 itself being essentially frozen. The basic structure for IDLE 3.2 was carried over. The main changes that had to be made to the Polo code were the change in module names between Python 2.7 and Python 3.2 (e.g. Tkinter in 2.7 is tkinter in 3.2). The patch was built from the release27-maint branch. Bug report 10137 should now be listed as a duplicate.
