Maybe a solution for this would be to change the name of the 'Format' menu to
something like 'Source'? Interestingly, the Format menu is available on
outwin, even though that is output-only, so I guess 'Source' would only make
sense if

I believe it is the case that none of these proposed changes would have any
effect on Aqua (native, non-X11) OS X Tk variants (Cocoa or Carbon). Unlike on
Windows and X11, standard OS X menus in conforming GUI apps do not have
underline letter shortcuts. (OS X

Currently, in 3.4 Win 7, tk 8.6, Alt O enter (or Alt O O O enter, etc) is

Which platform are you running?
On Linux (Ubuntu 11.10, Python 3.2, Tk 8.5), Alt-o does not toggle between
