Thanks.

maybe some of the following stuff is useful for somebody, or for 
future PythonWin default:

In attachment a patch for pywin/default.cfg, which does context 
(word) sensitive help from editor into Python Help and PythonWin Help

F1               = HelpPy
Ctrl+F1          = HelpPyWin
..

and allows for faster edit-run cycle: running/interacting with 
(auto-unindented) selected code lines from editor

Ctrl+K            = Interact_SelectedLines
Ctrl+E            = ExecGlobal_SelectedLines

( the little patch of scintilla/config.py enables correct line 
numbers for traceback and debugging of code in default.cfg )

-

Also CtrlEnter.patch (-> framework/interact.py), which enables 
ad-hoc debugging from interactive pane (Ctrl-Enter) into an 
interactive statement (without long-winded F5 running into 
breakpoints etc). I did not put the code into default.cfg, because 
a lot of pre-processing code is shared with normal interactive 
statement execution.
