            Bug ID: 68645
           Summary: pywikibot.ui.editText imports gui which does not exist
                    in core
           Product: Pywikibot
           Version: core (2.0)
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: General
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

If config.editor does not have a value, which is the default, pywikibot falls
back to using an internal editor, and fails.

In pywikibot/editor.py TextEditor.edit(), pywikibot.ui.editText() is invoked.

Many scripts use TextEditor:
replace.py
selflink.py
upload.py
catall.py
spamremove.py
solve_disambiguation.py
unlink.py
blockpageschecker.py
editarticle.py

The easiest way to show the problem is with the script editarticle.py

$ python pwb.py editarticle -family:wikipedia -lang:en -p "Test page"
Could not load GUI modules: No module named gui
Nothing changed

The module gui from compat was not ported to core.
