Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
In both cases, if-clause and the else-clause are at the beginning of the line (from Python's point of view).
The difference is that the Python command line interpreter adds a "..." to the beginning of secondary lines. That makes the else-clause visually line-up with the if-clause which is prefixed with ">>>".
With IDLE, the prefix for a secondary line is "", so the else-clause is still at the beginning of the line eventhough it doesn't visually line-up with the if-clause.
