IDLE doesn't have any GUI hooks, whereas Dabo's is made for the GUI.
E.g., we have the equivalent of SYS(1270), which we called 'getMouseObject()'
instead. We also have a separate section for the output of commands, full
command history including search, and an integrated code editor so that you can
edit multi-line chunks of code and then execute it in the Command Window.
I have a screencast that shows the Dabo dShell class (the class our
Command Window is based on) along with some ways to interact with a database
and a grid:

This was done about a year ago before I added the integrated code
editor, but you can get a good idea how the class works.
