For future googler's and to stave off any unnecessary replies, on a 
different thread about IDLE problems <http://tinyurl.com/4bl45> Peter 
Otten posted the information that allowed me to resolve this. (It was 
a matter of finding the custom key-binding that I'd defined which made 
IDLE choke and removing it.)

So, thanks Peter!

Best to all,
