[issue17172] Add turtledemo to IDLE menu
Ned Deily added the comment: turtle_demo_v3.patch looks good to me. I have satisfied myself that the AppleScript works OK with a non-English system. And, while it is a bit of a kludge for OS X and assuming the rest of the change works OK on Windows and Linux, I would recommend to Terry that we proceed with this approach for 3.5, 3.4 if someone feels strongly about it, and skip 2.7. If a better way to do it turns up, we can add that later.

[issue17172] Add turtledemo to IDLE menu
Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I agree with skipping 2.7. The current patch is based on importing turtledemo, while on 2.7, turtleDemo.py is in Demo/turtle/ and cannot be imported. It could run with execfile, but the viewer will only run if /turtle is the current directory. On Windows, this would still be useless as the 2.7 installer does not install Demo or anything therein. When turtleDemo is installed, the location is system dependent. An extended version of the new checker extension, #21880, would allow users to configure 'run turtledemo' to work on a system that has it. The patch works fine on Windows, including not blocking other actions with Idle. The only change I might make is cmd = [sys.executable, '-m', 'turtledemo'] which is more readable and does the same as the current version. But see below. (Lita, don't make a new patch for this or anything else in this message.) The main remaining demo viewer fix is font re-sizing, #21933, which I expect we should finish within a week. 'Run turtledemo' should go on the Run menu, along with other 'run external program' menu items. The Run menu is easily enabled in the Shell window by adding '(run, _Run),' to menu_specs before options (line 842). However, putting the entry where it would belong, after Run Module, means that the addition has to be delayed until after the ScriptBinding extension is loaded. That would be done most easily as part of loading the checker extension #21880. The open_turtle_demo function would be moved and perhaps generalized. The change to make turtledemo run properly in a subprocess on Mac appears to be a separate issue from adding it to Idle's menu. I presume that if turtledemo.__main__ is loaded into Idle, and run with F5, as I have been doing, there is the same problem (on a Mac). I would guess that the same would be true of any tkinter app run in a subprocess from Idle. How about non-gui apps that are not mac-aware? If any of these are true, the fix would be generally useful outside of turtledemo and would seem to belong somewhere in the tkinter package. (Is the same true for some of maxosxSupport). If the activate code is moved to macosxSupport.activate(), does the following work in EditorWindow.open_turtle_demo? cmd = [sys.executable, '-c', 'from idlelib.macosxSupport import activate as A; A()\n' 'from turtledemo.__main__ import main; main()'] Does the activate code have to be called after, say, the tkinter import in turtledemo, or is anytime in the process ok? While something like this is not needed to run turtledemo, which we can edit, it would be to run tkinter (or mac-unaware gui apps) that we cannot edit. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue17172 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

The activate code has to be called in the subprocess after Tk() has been called because only then is the subprocess guaranteed to have been promoted to an OS X GUI process. So that suggestion will not work. The idea of adding something to tkinter was discussed in msg192523 of issue11571, though not this specific solution. If you want to pursue more generalized issues of GUI application behaviors on OS X, that should be the subject of another issue. I suggest that this issue remain focused on the original topic. I also would be concerned about adding the Run menu to the Shell window (or system menu bar when the Shell window is active) merely to accommodate this feature. Having turtledemo in the Help menu seems fine to me. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue17172 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue17172] Add turtledemo to IDLE menu
Ned Deily added the comment:
Here are some review comments on turtle_demo_v2.patch.
First, the subprocess call to start turtledemo may work ok in your build
directory but it will not work in general. Using the standard idiom for
invoking a new process running the current instance of python, the call should
look something like:
cmd = [sys.executable, '-c', 'from turtledemo.__main__ import main; main()']
p = subprocess.Popen(cmd)
Also, note that the imp module is deprecated in 3.4 in favor of importlib:
https://docs.python.org/dev/library/imp.html#imp.find_module
I'm not sure there is much point in having this test, though. The only thing
it would catch is if some third-party distributor decided to move turtledemo
into a separate package or not ship it altogether. It would not work for 2.7,
even if Demo/turtle was shipped, since, in 2.7, turtledemo is not structured as
an importable package.
(And, to answer Terry's earlier question: no, the Demo directory is also not
shipped with the python.org OS X installers for 2.7. I expect that the
standard practice among Unix distributors would also be not to ship it by
default; for one thing, they have to figure out where to install it since we
don't provide a standard location to do so. I see that Debian does package up
Demo into an optional python2.7-examples Debian package. So there seems to
be no point in applying this change to 2.7 without also backporting the
turtledemo repackaging done in 3.x and that would be a larger undertaking
needing discussion and approval.)
(Ah, but looking at current Debian and Ubuntu, for Python 3.4 I see that they
have packaged turtledemo as part of their optional 'libpython3.4-testsuite'
source package. Plus, they have long packaged IDLE separately
('idle-python3.4'). That means end users will need to ensure both packages are
installed to be able to use turtledemo with IDLE. So I guess that says that
there *is* a point to the import test. Ugh. I'm not sure what other popular
distributions do.)
Then there is a specific and serious usability problem with this feature on OS
X. The subprocess call starts a new process with a second Python interpreter
to run a second Tcl/Tk instance to run turtledemo next to IDLE. The turtledemo
appears *but* the keyboard and mouse focus remains on IDLE which also means
that the IDLE menu remains active (recall that there is only one menu bar on OS
X and it shows only the menus from the currently focused GUI application).
Especially with the proposed menu changes in Issue22065, it would be very
confusing to the novice user to see the turtledemo window appear, possibly
covering any IDLE windows, but with the IDLE menu still active and
keyboard/mouse focus still on IDLE. It turns out to be a bit tricky to
reliably activate tbe turtledemo application programmatically from Python
code without resorting to some hacks. Here is one hack, making use of a bit of
AppleScript, that seems to work. It would need to be tested in non-English OS
X en
vironments to make sure it works there also.

There are deprecated OS X Carbon interfaces to do the equivalent, as was used
in the third-party package appscript. I'm noseying Ronald to see if he has any
better suggestions for a non-deprecated way to do this (via Cocoa perhaps) and
that could possibly be made available more generally: IDLE itself could benefit
from it and would be a better solution than what was used in Issue11571.
I have not tried the patch on Windows or X11 Tk to see if there are similar
usability issues. If so, it's possible the wm attribtues . -topmost dance,
as in Issue11571, might help.

They are not currently installed by the 2.7 Windows installer, but this could be requested (of Steve Dower) on another issue.

[issue17172] Add turtledemo to IDLE menu
Terry J. Reedy added the comment: 0. My general interest is in running external programs and in particular, for this issue, python modules intended to be run as main. Some other scripts I would like to be able to easily launch from Idle include List/test.test_idle.py, Tools/Scripts/patchcheck.py, and a possible 'idle_tour.py' (in progress) that would be a live demo/tutorial of some Idle widgets and functions. I would like the list to be user-configurable for other choices. 1. As with any python script, turtledemo can be run now, without modification, in a separate process, asynchronously, from within idle, by loading the file into an editor window and selecting Run / Run Module or hitting F5. Communication and cleanup issues are already solved. Having output appear in the Shell window obviates the need for a separate console window to receive output, keeps it visible even after the external process quits. One thing that remains impossible is to run two separate modules at the same time. A possible inplementation of 'easy to launch' would be to load turtledemo.py into an editor window and generate a 'run-module' event. This, of course, does more than is needed and has the danger of a user accidentally overwriting the original module code. An alternative would be a stripped down version of ScriptBinding.ScriptBinding._run_module_event. 2. This feature should be implemented as an extension rather than being 'baked' into Idle. Run-module itself is an extension (ScriptBinding.py), as are several other functions (see config-extensions.def). A possible name would be 'external_module.py' An advantage of an extension is that it can be turned off if someone, such as a college course instructor, does not like it present. This change could be made before considering point 1. I would like to have one extension that could handle multiple external modules listed in the config entry. After reading config-bindings.def and some of the extension files, especially RstripExtension.py, I believe this is possible. However, I would expect to add this after there is a patch just for turtledemo. 3. If Run were on the menu of Shell windows, that would be the appropriate place for 'run external module' as opposed 'run editor module'. This would be especially true with multiple entries. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue17172 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

What is does need is the ability to widen the code pane so one can more easily read or cut (by normal means). See #21597. One of my concerns about putting turtledemo on the Idle menu is that people will see it as part of Idle. Fine it it works well ;-). Not so fine if it does not. The solution is to fix any important current problems. #18132 (buttons disappear on small screens) has a patch that fixes the problem but creates another.

[issue17172] Add turtledemo to IDLE menu
Terry J. Reedy added the comment:
My thoughts on this. Overall, +.something (and increasing as I look at it more
;-).
I am opposed to adding this to the relatively long file menu. It has nothing to
do with manipulating or editing files. If it is to go in, please put it on the
help menu, at least for now, as the intention is to somehow help beginners. If
we ever add a demo section or submenu to the Help menu or Demo to the top-level
level menu, we can move this.
Any patch should be applied to both 3.4 and 3.5. Turtledemo apparently does not
exist in 2.7.
Idle NEWS items first go into the Idle section of the regular NEWS file. They
are supposed to be copied into the idlelib/NEWS with each release. That has
sometimes happened but not always. (I should open separate issue to fix both
the idlelib files and the procedure.) In any case, NEWS entries should not be
added to a patch until it is about to be committed. Otherwise, merge conflicts
are possible or even likely.
With the main code in turtledemo.__main__ wrapped in a function, we could pass
an 'idle' argument so that the demo could modify its behavior when run from
Idle. I mention a possibility below.
The patch runs turtledemo within the Idle process. It might be better to run it
in a separate subprocess:
python -c from turtledemo.__main__ import main; main('idle')
One reason, aside from not leaving all the imports around, is that 3 of the
demos print to console.
* When clock is stopped, a traceback is printed; this in mentioned in a tracker
issue (and should be fixed).
* Penrose prints each info about each round; this text could/should be put in a
popup text window.
* Tree prints '1024'; this could be eliminated or put on the status bar under
the text window, as another demo does.
When Idle is run windowless with pythonw on Windows, attempts to print to the
non-existent console crash the process. There have been several bug issues
about this. The current patch should not be pushed with turtledemo as is unless
tested with installed 3.4.1 by hand-patching idlelib. Or, all console prints
should be eliminated.
However, a future addition to turtledemo could create a problem. That is why I
think it better that only idlelib code run within the idle process.
I am bothered a bit that there is little relationship between Idle and
turtledemo. Both using tkinter seems not too relevant. That both tend to be
used by less experienced Python users seems a bit thin. The relationship would
be stronger if there were other demos (which I would like) or if there were
option in the demo to load the code for a particular example into an Idle
editor window. (Each demo will run independently in an Idle user process - text
output, including tracebacks resulting from ungracefully closing an example
before it is done, appears in the Shell window.)

Lita Cho added the comment: I did not know that NEWS items should not be edited unless it is about to be committed. The previous comments suggested to put it in. Thank you for the feedback. I can move the Turtle Demp into the Help Menu rather than the File menu. I agree that it seems out of place. I can also make it such that it runs the demo as an external process rather than within IDLE. That way, it is completely separate by IDLE and we don't create a dependency. I think if we were to load in future demos, they could be run as other processes rather than within IDLE, so that future additions don't end up crashing IDLE. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue17172 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
