In Python Shell Save & Save As menus are enable and using them we
can save shell text as python script (.py) that never executes again

text as plain text. I made a little try to disable this and succeed.
We will not disable being able to save the shell window.
http://bugs.python.org/issue11838 is about saving in runnable form.
If IDLE saves the shell history to a file with a .py extension by
default, that is indeed confusing. It is useful to be able to save the
history to a file, but it shouldn't have a .py extension.
I agree: if shell window is saved as is, as logfile, as at present, the
default should be .txt. #21140 is about changing default for Output
Window; same method will work shell. Issue above is really about adding
a second save option.
