Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
Among other problems, the patch for #11820 uses a unix-only tcl function. In non-shell editor and output windows, Select all (Control-A at least on windows) Delete (or Backspace, or Cut to clipboard, ^X on Windows) clears the window. Delete does not work for the read-only history portion of the Shell, hence the request for a separate menu item. However, if an editor window is open, one can still get a clean Shell by closing Shell and re-opening with Run => Shell or running the file being edited. ---------- resolution: -> duplicate stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed superseder: -> IDLE - clear and restart the shell window title: IDLE Clear function returns 256 on Mac OS Catalina -> IDLE: system clear function returns 256 on Mac OS Catalina _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39141> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
