+ New in IDLE 0.5 (2/14/2000)
+ -------------------------
+ 
+ Tons of stuff, much of it contributed by Tim Peters and Mark Hammond:
+ 
+ - Format paragraph now recognizes Python block comments and reformats
+ them correctly (MH)
+ 
+ - New version of pyclbr.py parses top-level functions and understands
+ much more of Python's syntax; this is reflected in the class and path
+ browsers (TP)
+ 
+ - Much better auto-indent; knows how to indent the insides of
+ multi-line statements (TP)
+ 
+ - Call tip window pops up when you type the name of a known function
+ followed by an open parenthesis (MH)
+ 
+ - Comment out region now inserts ## to make it stand out more (TP)
+ 
+ - New path and class browsers based on a tree widget that looks
+ familiar to Windows users
+ 
+ - Reworked script running commands to be more intuitive
+ 
+ - XXX much more?!
