Summary: A command history for the idle interactive shell

Initial Comment:
1. Start IDLE.
2. In the IDLE shell that pops up, write a line of
Python code and press enter.
3. Pretend you made a spelling mistake in step two. So
you press up and try to fix it but you can't because
the cursor is moved and the IDLE shell doesn't work at
all like the normal CPython shell. In fact, there is no
easy way at all to get back to the last line of input
for correcting spelling mistakes. 
I think there should be one. Maybe ALT+Up could do what
Up does in the CPython shell?
