Interesting excercise. I think either Pythonwin or IDLE has a similar
facility 
built in, but I can't remember which,. nor indeed if I'm getting confused

something else - Delphi and several Java IDEs do this....

Not if you use any of the cross platform GUIS - thats why they are cross

I'd recommend wxPython for this one...
