has never worked and no one has complained. It is still possible to set a
default tabs (v. spaces) indent 'manually' via config-main.def (or to turn on
tabs for the current EditorWindow via the Format menu) but IDLE will encourage
indentation via spaces.
Enable setting the indentation width using the Options dialog.

- Change default: IDLE now starts with Python Shell.
- Removed the File Path from the Additional Help Sources scrolled list.
- Add capability to access Additional Help Sources on the web if the
Help File Path begins with //http or www. (Otherwise local path is
validated, as before.)
- Additional Help Sources were not being posted on the Help menu in the
order entered. Implement sorting the list by [HelpFiles] 'option'
number.
- Add Browse button to New Help Source dialog. Arrange to start in
Python/Doc if platform is Windows, otherwise start in current directory.
- Put the Additional Help Sources directly on the Help menu instead of in
an Extra Help cascade menu. Rearrange the Help menu so the Additional
Help Sources come last. Update help.txt appropriately.
- Fix Tk root pop-ups in configSectionNameDialog.py and configDialog.py
M configHelpSourceEdit.py
1. Attach configHelpSourceEdit error dialogs to parent to avoid Tk root
pop-ups.
2. Make configHelpSourceEdit OK button the default and bind <Return>.
3. Reformat configHelpSourceEdit.
4. ConfigDialog.SaveAllChangedConfig() had a bug which caused additional
help sources to be deleted when other config items were changed.
4. Uniform capitalization in configDialog.
5. Update configDialog doc string.
