Getting a Foothold on the IDLE Debugger

[W. Watson]

How about that! Thanks. An odd way to do it, but IDLE is suitably odd with 
respect to its namesake.

BTW, what's with the close and exit options on the File menu? They both dump 
me out of IDLE. Odd. Any idea of whether I can "glue" the File-?Open to a 
particular folder?

Any other similar programs with a better user interface for beginners?
