Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Soufiane, when a core developer (indicated by the Python icon after the name) changes a header, do not change it back. Comment on the change if you want, but leave it as is.
My revised title accurately describes the core problem: the paste operation does not complete after the 10-15 minutes I allowed; I suspect and presume that it never will. Asking tk to do something else while the pasting is ongoing or hung results in a crash. Serhiy, I am puzzled that you added IDLE back as a component. I demonstrated that the symptom can be reproduced with no involvement of idlelib at all. I only left this open for you to decide if a) tkinter is involved and b) if you might want to change tkinter in response. I otherwise consider this issue outside of reasonable expectations, equivalent to the won't-fix fact that CPython will not compile, for instance, a machine-generated tuple display nested 100,000 levels deep. ---------- components: -IDLE title: Crash Python IDLE 2.7.11 -> Pasting 900000 chars into a tk Entry widget fails _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26169> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
