You dont :-(

Making the window sizable is easy, even though it isnt - because  the
controls dont all move with it, and I cant be bothered writing the code to
make it work. (And annoyed I should have to)

Pythonwin..)

Ooops :-)  Probably could have just removed the Pythonwin and/or Debugger
registry keys?

Definately.  However, I want to drop the dialog completely - I want dockable
controls, and use the main interactive window, rather than a new one in the
debugger.  Various histe^horical reasons for that.

Pulling me in the other direction is the possibility of using MS debuggers -
gets me out of debuggers all together.  The debugger doesnt gain much from
being implemented in Python - you still cant change code as it is executing
(which is what would be _really_ nice :-)

Oops.  I will fix that.

Thanks,

Mark.
