I just uploaded a series of IDLE patches, but I'm not quite sure how to classify them on the feature/bugfix scale now that the last beta is out.
>From most to least buggish: python.org/sf/1540892 -- honor the new quit() behavior. On the other hand, it was documented that this didn't work in IDLE, and it is *possible* that someone was counting on this. python.org/sf/1540851 -- with is now a blockopener, and should be counted as such -- I *think* this one would be safe, but I know that changing a parser can be surprising, and I suppose it *could* wait until with no longer requires a future statement. python.org/sf/1540874 -- broken shortcut keys. On windows, only one entry per menu can be reached with the same shortcut letter, so advertising others is just an attractive nuisance. I'm not sure that other systems wouldn't be able to use the hidden shortcuts. python.org/sf/1540869 -- GUI fix. The current code puts in a separator using a magic number (and has XXX comments about it.) This changes the magic number so that the separator is more visible, but I'm not sure the old behavior rose to a bug, or that it wasn't platform dependent. python.org/sf/1540849 -- except too broad. I wouldn't suggest applying this late in the release cycle, except that it seems sort of like the memory errors that are still being patched. -jJ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
