Cheryl, the addition looks nice.  But for anything else, lets discuss here 
first.

Terry J. Reedy  added the comment:

Response to history issues raised in PR:
1. Not erasing output/history is a feature: some shells save and restore recent 
history when close and open.  Shell restart is an alternative to that.  I 
fairly often replay statements after restart.
2. I think turning off cycling is feature bloat.  (I never do so for search.)
3. The one history feature that multiple people have asked for, on another 
issue, is retrieval with up/down arrow, as seems to be standard.  I now agree.

For items going under edit, which is already 'full', submenus will be needed.  
Since history is Shell only, separate entries are ok, at least for now, instead 
of 'History' and a submenu with 'previous' and 'next'.

The toggle highlighting issue is #27170 (not 27120)

[Terry J. Reedy]

New submission from Terry J. Reedy:

(Follow-up to #15308, which added ^C Interrupt Execution to doc and Shell menu, 
and to #27120, which proposed to add ^/ Toggle Highlighting, until I realized 
that that should be part of #6858, about highlighting non-.py files.)

Every IDLE function should be documented.  More should be on menu.  Perhaps add 
Move/delete menus for cursor movement and directional deletion, if not a 
diagram.

Another idea.  A searchable current key binding list, possible sortable by key 
as well as function.  It should include fixed builtin bindings as well as 
extension bindings.  See #27120 for motivation.

Side issue 1: Menu entries for extensions do not reflect customization (? 
verify, from Roger).

Side issue 2: Menus need to be tested.
