[issue38440] Possible news issues with IDLE

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy  added the comment:

I presume this is on macOS, with its finicky tk.  Have you 'upgraded' to 
Catalina?  I have not, that I know of.  I will try 3.8.0rc1 on my MacBook Air 
tomorrow.

1. Jumps.  All the way to before the beginning "Python 3.8..." splash line?  
How long is long?  I may not do not do long enough sessions on the mac to see 
this.

2. Do you mean the box with "Your program is still running!\nDo you want to 
kill it?" resulting from 'quit()' or 'exit()' or occasionally otherwise?  Will 
test tomorrow.

[issue38440] Possible news issues with IDLE

[Raymond Hettinger]

New submission from Raymond Hettinger :

I've been exercising the 3.8.0rc1 version of IDLE and noticed two anomalies but 
have not had a chance to investigate further:

* Periodically in a long shell session, the cursor jumps to the beginning of 
the cumulative text output.  This necessitates a lot of scrolling to get back 
down to the active part of the session.

* The pop-up message box for interrupting currently running code will appear 
several times in succession.  Dismissing the box doesn't clear a queue of 
events, so the message may occur several times in a row.
