There is documentation of these modules, it's just that it's in the modules 
themselves.

Daniel Swanson added the comment:

correcting self.

Should have been:
And now I've got the top one importing one that's importing one on the same 
level and saying it doesn't exist!

[issue15844] weird import errors

2012-09-01 Thread Daniel Swanson

New submission from Daniel Swanson:

I'm dealing with a bunch of nested folders and my imports have gone crazy. When 
I try to test one of the lower level scripts that imports one of the higher 
level one it gives me an error message. But, when I run the top one, (which 
cascadingly imports just about everything) it doesn't. And now I've got one 
trying to import something on the same level and it says it doesn't exist!
This happens whenever I try to use folders, because of this, I only have one 
file of programs.

[issue15346] Tkinter extention modules no documentation

2012-08-15 Thread Daniel Swanson

Daniel Swanson added the comment:

For that matter, none of the following have docs:
tkinter.colorchooser
tkinter.commondialog
tkinter.filedialog
tkinter.font
tkinter.messagebox
tkinter.simpledialog
tkinter.dnd
Perhaps this should be remidied? One sentence usualy does not describe the use 
of an entire module.

[issue6804] IDLE: Detect Python files even if name doesn't end in .py

2012-07-22 Thread Daniel Swanson

Daniel Swanson  added the comment:

No. When I try to open the file a small window entitled "Specify file encoding" 
pops up that says 
"The file's encoding is invalid in Python 3.x.
Idle will convert it to UTF-8.
What is the current encoding of the file?"
followed by an entry widget that has "cp1252" and "ok" and "cancel" buttons. 
When I click "ok" the computer go "dunnn" and a error window titled "Decoding 
Error" that says "File C:\Python32\misc\bee.jpg Failed to Decode" with an "ok" 
button which, when clicked, closes idle (the edit window, not the shell). Does 
that answer your question?

[issue6804] IDLE: Detect Python files even if name doesn't end in .py

2012-07-16 Thread Daniel Swanson

Daniel Swanson  added the comment:

I am also somewhat puzzled by this issue.
The other day I was able to open some .txt files just to see if I could and 
they opened just fine.
Just now I tryed to open a .jpg file and I got an error message, but then 
again, why would someone save a python file as a jpeg image?

[issue15346] Tkinter dnd has no documentation

2012-07-13 Thread Daniel Swanson

New submission from Daniel Swanson :

The title should be self explanatory.
I needed Drag-and-drop for a project I was working on, (maybe I shouldn't be 
refering to it in the past tense as I haven't started yet) so I checked the 
documentation for tkinter and found:
3.3.0 b1
tkinter.dnd 
Drag-and-drop support for tkinter. This is experimental and should become 
deprecated when it is replaced with the Tk DND.

3.2.2 (and .2.3)
tkinter.dnd 
Drag-and-drop support for tkinter. This is experimental and should become 
deprecated when it is replaced with the Tk DND. 

2.7.3
Tkdnd 
Drag-and-drop support for Tkinter. This is experimental and should become 
deprecated when it is replaced with the Tk DND.

I think that tkinter.dnd needs some documentation, whether or not it is 
replaced with Tk DND.

[issue15041] tkinter "see also" list is from Python2

2012-06-09 Thread Daniel Swanson

New submission from Daniel Swanson :

I was looking for information about menus in tkinter and checked the "see also" 
list. The second is copyrighted 1999, the third says Python 2.5 and the first 
is pretty much just links to the second and third. The forth is a book. It is 
my opinion that these resources should be updated.

[issue14901] Python Windows FAQ is Very Outdated

2012-06-02 Thread Daniel Swanson

Daniel Swanson  added the comment:

>>> 1a) Update all Windows references to Windows 7 or Vista/7. We can include 
>>> XP, but I think Microsoft is dropping support next year.

According to wikipedia Windows XP is the second most popular operating system, 
probably better not to drop it all together. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_operating_systems

Of course there are people who have 5 or 6 computers and use the same windows 
disk on all of them which might skew the data.

2012-05-24 Thread Daniel Swanson

Daniel Swanson  added the comment:

I agree that Such things are most outdated and I think that if any Python users 
are still using platforms that old, that they are an extreme minority and also 
wonder what on (or off) Earth a Freeze is.

Daniel Swanson  added the comment:

I attempted to reproduce the error. I didn't, all I got was
'str' object has no attribute 'decode'
here is the whole test.

Python 3.2.2 (default, Sep  4 2011, 09:51:08) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on 
win32
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.

  File "", line 1, in

Appearently, this error does not apply to Python 3.2.2.

[issue14672] Windows installer: add desktop shortcut(s)

2012-05-12 Thread Daniel Swanson

Daniel Swanson  added the comment:

What's the start menu?
hahaha
I think that this issue is pointless, it takes 3 clicks to make a desktop 
shortcut (if have a lot of programs on your computer, maybe 4) any Windows user 
should know how to do it.

what about this?
