Ok, I finished a successful test on W7. Previously I also tested this on OSX and Lubuntu linux, so I think we can call this tested for 2.7 .
The installation steps were: * copy Terminal.py to Lib/idlelib * apply PyShell.py.patch . What do you think -- could we get that patch and Terminal.py committed to the 2.7 main line? Thanks !
