    SuSe 10.0 missing Idle

    Hello,

    Hopefully this is not to of topic. I just installed SuSe 10.0
    and although python installed but no Idle. I can't seem to find it in
    the list of available packages either. I was wondering if someone might
    steer me in the right direction. I've just started learning python and
    would really like to get Idle back or failing that a reccommendation of
    another IDE for python?

    Thanks in Advance
    Steve

    SuSE probably has a seperate package, something like python-tk, that
    will install IDLE. Look for that, some distros don't like to install
    idle by default because it also means installing the Tk toolkit that it
    uses.

        # rpm -qf `which idle`
        python-idle-2.4.1-3

        Ciao, Michael.
