用戶目錄 的.idlerc 目錄：
下面的各個系統下對應的該文件的位置： 在Linux系列系統下路徑為（~表示用戶目錄）： ~/.idlerc/ 在Windows XP下路徑為： C:/Documents and Settings/<用戶名>/.idlerc/ 在Windows 7下路徑為： C:/Users/<用戶名>/.idlerc/
在window下，可以直接在運行框中輸入下面的路徑定位到位置： %USERPROFILE%/.idlerc/ 有時候會發現目錄中沒有config-highlight.cfg文件，那么自己就創建一個：在Linux下： # for Linuxvi ~/.idlerc/config-highlight.cfg 在window下： notepad %USERPROFILE%/.idlerc/config-highlight.cfg
下面介紹Obsidian, Desert, 和Tango三種主題配置
在 用戶目錄 的.idlerc 目錄下新建名為 config-highlight.cfg 文件，並加入如下內容

重啟IDLE，依次選 Options -> Configure IDLE -> Highlighting 如下圖
有童鞋要問字體怎么配置？這個容易，在Highlighting選項卡旁邊有個Fonts/Tabs選項卡，可以用來配置字體和縮進寬度的：
