[issue19042] Idle: add option to autosave 'Untitled' edit window
Bruce Sherwood added the comment: Very nice, Terry. Good point about positive vs. negative specifications. I think maybe your Prompt to Save versus Autosave is the best scheme, because one is specifying whether or not to do something active (namely, put up a save dialog). -- nosy: +Bruce.Sherwood ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue19042 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue8900] IDLE crashes if Preference set to At Startup - Open Edit Window
Bruce Sherwood added the comment: For what it's worth (maybe not much?), the version of IDLE produced by Guilherme Polo in the 2009 Google Summer of Code, which VPython (vpython.org) uses under the name VIDLE, does not have any problem with starting with an edit window and in fact I always use it that way.

It does not repro 100% of the time, but frequently enough that its hard to get anything done. My repro is a little simpler and might help understanding the fix. Win7 Python 3.3 I start IDLE normally from the shortcut in the install. Ctrl-N to open and edit window. Ctrl-O to open a file. Select file and then Idle exits. As mentioned, using the menu to open the file seems to work more reliably.

I would be happy to help, but frankly I don't know my way around in IDLE very well, and I pretty much tried simply to get Polo's changes into the hopper.

[issue10215] Mac Python 3.1 installer does less than earlier installers
Bruce Sherwood bruce.sherw...@gmail.com added the comment: Now I understand what you're getting at; I didn't realize that you were aiming at the possible distinction between 3 and 3.1. Yes, this is what bothered me and prompted my original posting. Python 3.1 goes into the same framework as the 2.x versions. Incidentally, I did find that in /usr/local/bin (where I had not thought to look) there are the following: python3.1, a link to the framework python3.1 pythonw3.1, a link to the framework pythonw3.1 python3, a link to a framework python3, which is an extra copy (not a link) to the framework python3.1 pythonw3, a link to a framework pythonw3, which is a link to the framework python3.1 This looks to me pretty contorted, although I suppose the goal was to let people either run python (their most recent Python 2.x) or run python3 (their most recent Python 3.x). A somewhat related example of confusion is that on Ubuntu 10.10 there is a shadowy existence for some python3 that has its own lib folder, in parallel to python3.1; the python3 doesn't seem to be simply an alias for python3.1. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10215 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10215] Mac Python 3.1 installer does less than earlier installers
New submission from Bruce Sherwood bruce.sherw...@gmail.com: For Python 2.x on Macs, the installer added PATH code to .profile and switched /Library/Framework/Python.framework/Versions/Current to point to the newly installed version of Python. Neither of these actions is carried out by the 3.1.2 installer, and I wonder whether this is intentional or an oversight. Also, it's not clear to me what command one could issue in a terminal to execute the new Python (you can of course start the new Python from the Applications folder). -- components: Installation messages: 119731 nosy: Bruce.Sherwood priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Mac Python 3.1 installer does less than earlier installers type: feature request versions: Python 3.1 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10215 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Bruce Sherwood bruce.sherw...@gmail.com added the comment: Putting print statements in that part of the world shows that the reason why the list.remove fails is that while a ColorDelegator.toggle_colorize_event object is in the list, it has a different memory address than the ColorDelegator.toggle_colorize_event object to be removed. I've seen this NOT fail occasionally (the memory addresses were the same, so the list.remove succeeded), all of which would seem to imply that something has moved in memory.

[issue10079] idlelib for Python 3 with Guilherme Polo GSoC enhancements
New submission from Bruce Sherwood bruce.sherw...@gmail.com: It is proposed to incorporate the work of Guilherme Polo in the 2009 Google Summer of Code into idlelib. Polo's enhancements have been extensively tested for a year through being included with VPython. Here is a description from NEWS.txt: In December 2008 David Scherer created an alternative version of IDLE to fix some long-standing problems. In the 2009 Google Summer of Code Guilherme Polo continued this work, assisted by Bruce Sherwood. Important new fixes and features include: * A configuration preference that permits writing and running test programs from the editor without having to save the file (you're warned upon quitting whether to save). * Bringing the shell window forward in case of an error (because novices often failed to realize why their program had stopped). * A revert plug-in (FileRevert.py). * Unreliable and slow termination of user program on Windows; now you can re-run without first closing the graphics window. * Missing preferences and other menus on Macintosh. * Use any port for RPC server, so multiple instances of VIDLE can run at the same time without interference. Polo submitted patches at the end of the summer of 2009, found at code.google.com/p/google-summer-of-code-2009-python/downloads/list This was for the Python 2.X series. Because the mechanism was not clear for getting these patches into the version of IDLE distributed with Python, the patched version has been distributed with VPython (vpython.org) with the name VIDLE to attempt to avoid confusion with IDLE. It is installed into site-packages. In October 2010 Bruce Sherwood manually applied Polo's patches to the idlelib found at svn.python.org/projects/python/tags/r312/Lib/idlelib In addition to applying Polo's patches, the new code uses the new dot addressing of modules (e.g. from . import PyShell). Except for having to change one absolute address in the use of __import__ in PyShell.py, this version can work either in Python31/Lib/idlelib or in Python31/Lib/site-packages/vidle. This VIDLE will be included in the installer for VPython for Python 3. -- components: IDLE files: vidle20101012.diff keywords: patch messages: 118501 nosy: Bruce.Sherwood priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: idlelib for Python 3 with Guilherme Polo GSoC enhancements type: feature request versions: Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19211/vidle20101012.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10079 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
