Fine, thanks, but WHY isn't it in a menu (e.g. Debug) ?
Moreover, I see :

    restart-shell - <Control-Key-F6>

Hum, but when I press, Ctl-F6, nothing happens !!??!! F6 gives me char.
(MacOS-X Lion, France, Idle 3.3.0a2)

I tried to replace "restart-shell " with F6 (which does nothing except displaying a 
strange character inside a square), but that was refused "already in use"...

P.S. There is no "configuration panel (Options -> Configure IDLE)",
only a Preferences menu with a "Key" tab on MacOS-X. May I suggest to the
Python Idle 3 team to test their software on a Mac ? Please :-)
