I would rather leave this open for the moment as an information resource. I wrote query.py with a base class and subclasses to standardize asking users for input. So some of the patch may be obsolete, but it does have a catalog of popup uses. The patch consistently replaces tkMessagebox.showerror with widget.showerror. I have done that in several places, although widget.showerror may just be messagebox.showerror. At least some of my motivation was making testing easier, by adding a mock to the test instance instead of temporarily monkeypatching messagebox. If a custom Showerror class were defined in, for instant, query.py, "self.showerror = tkMessagebox.showerror" could easily be replaced by "self.showerror = query.Showerror. I also have some interest in consistently handling focus in response to key presses. (There was recently a request for this on idle-dev.) ---------- nosy: -Todd.Rovito, gpolo, kbk, ned.deily, roger.serwy stage: patch review -> test needed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue2053> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
