This patch adds SIMPLE support for pychecker in IDLE.
It is not complete. It pops up a window, you can enter
filenames (not even a file dialog!), and run pychecker.

You cannot change examples. If someone wants to really
integrate this, they should add the user interface in
pychecker (pychecker/options.py), use a file dialog
to enter files, and handle file modifications.
Since pychecker imports the files, they need to be
removed from sys.modules, so modifications will be seen.

I'm concerned about the copyright notice. "All rights
reserved" means "you cannot copy it". Could you consider
licensing this under the PSF license?

No need to worry. Really, just want to have MetaSlash
mentioned. But note, this patch is still incomplete and
more work needs to be done before this should be accepted.

There has been posted a memorandum on IDLE patches recently;
all change *must* be contributed to the idlefork project
here on SF. Rejecting this patch.
