Sort of, no and yes...  

A few weeks ago I started trying to use Python & IDLE and found a bug (which
I reported on idle-dev).  In the course of discussing that I found out that
the whole IDLE source was present in \idlelib which I hadn't realised, and
did look at it.  But for a Python newbie (if not a programming newbie) it's
too much to understand.
