   Duly noted. I will.

   Doesn't appear to be there at all (see above).

   I sure glad I stumbled across this thread.
   help() is a really nice feature.

   I work primarily in Linux and generally target
   *nix-style servers, but I am also quite impressed
   with what I have seen of the PythonWin IDE.

   I didn't see where is supported large projects
   with sessions, etc, ... but the environment is
   quite nice.
