There is a bug in the IDLE configuration dialog in the 1.1 versions.
(Why not update to a newer version?)

You can change the value manually in your user config files:
1. Go to the .idlerc directory (~/.idlerc on unix/linux, Documents and
Settings\<username>\.idlerc on WinXP)
2. Open config-main.cfg with a text editor (create it if it doesn't exist)
3. Add the following two lines:
[Indent]
num-spaces = 2


I don't have version 1.1.1 handy, but hopefully this should help... let me
know if it works out.

 Hi,



When I set the new indent width to 2, it won't be saved. When I open a new
window next time, it will reset to 4. I was wondering if I can save the
default indent width to 2.



I tried to use the set indentation defaults function in the option dialog,
but it doesn't work at all. I'm using idle 1.1.1



Thank you very much for your help.



Sincerely yours,

Liang Zou
