Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Output Window definitely needs a scrollbar available on screens where it cannot be stretched to 160 chars or so. Thinking about it, if one greps idlelib in a local install, with a url something like C:/users/somename/appdata/local/python/lib/idlelib/*.py, one only needs 100 chars to pick up the idlelib file name and code, but needs the scrollbar to display the last 100 chars instead of the first 100 chars.
To add to msg16443: the fact that one can stretch the window much wider than 80 chars means that omitting a scrollbar does not enforce an 80-char limit. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1207613> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
