Thanks for digging up the history. I would have approved without, but feel better with. Using the colorizer close method to close a window seemed flakey to me, and it seems someone else thought the same long ago. I suspect the machinery was left to avoid breaking external uses. PEP 434 changed this avoidance being *necessary*. (I am sure I have seen a SO answer with percolator + colorizer, as in turtledemo.) IDLE has had a too many shutdown bugs and still has some. Not adding one was my main concern when reviewing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36152> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
