a simple IDLE that I can download and use? I have both an IDLE and Pycharm
in Windows but I do not use Window very much and prefer to not have to break
out my Windows laptop and rearrange everything just to use Python.   After
much googling and searching on the web I have not found what I am looking
for.

_tkinter, tkinter, idlelib, turtle, and turtledemo are part of the stdlib and are included with the PSF installers for Windows and OSX. They depend on the installation of tcl/tk, which is included with the Windows installers. However, some (many, most, all?) linux distributions remove some or all of the above from their Python distribution and include whatever they remove with their tcl/tk distribution. I assume this must be true for Arch/Manjaro, so install tcl/tk and you should get the missing pieces of Python. For more help, enquire on the support list for Manjaro.
