What's New in IDLE 3.5.3? ========================= *Release date: 2017-01-01?* - Issue #15308: Add 'interrupt execution' (^C) to Shell menu. Patch by Roger Serwy, updated by Bayard Randel. - Issue #27922: Stop IDLE tests from 'flashing' gui widgets on the screen. - Add version to title of IDLE help window. - Issue #25564: In section on IDLE -- console differences, mention that using exec means that __builtins__ is defined for each statement. - Issue #27714: text_textview and test_autocomplete now pass when re-run in the same process. This occurs when test_idle fails when run with the -w option but without -jn. Fix warning from test_config. - Issue #25507: IDLE no longer runs buggy code because of its tkinter imports. Users must include the same imports required to run directly in Python. - Issue #27452: add line counter and crc to IDLE configHandler test dump. - Issue #27365: Allow non-ascii chars in IDLE NEWS.txt, for contributor names. - Issue #27245: IDLE: Cleanly delete custom themes and key bindings.

What's New in IDLE 3.5.2? ========================= *Release date: 2016-06-26* - Issue #5124: Paste with text selected now replaces the selection on X11. This matches how paste works on Windows, Mac, most modern Linux apps, and ttk widgets. Original patch by Serhiy Storchaka. - Issue #24759: Make clear in idlelib.idle_test.__init__ that the directory is a private implementation of test.test_idle and tool for maintainers. - Issue #27196: Stop 'ThemeChangef' warnings when running IDLE tests. These persisted after other warnings were suppressed in #20567. Apply Serhiy Storchaka's update_idletasks solution to four test files. Record this additional advice in idle_test/README.txt - Issue #20567: Revise idle_test/README.txt with advice about avoiding tk warning messages from tests. Apply advice to several IDLE tests. - Issue #27117: Make colorizer htest and turtledemo work with dark themes. Move code for configuring text widget colors to a new function. - Issue #26673: When tk reports font size as 0, change to size 10. Such fonts on Linux prevented the configuration dialog from opening. - Issue #21939: Add test for IDLE's percolator. Original patch by Saimadhav Heblikar. - Issue #21676: Add test for IDLE's replace dialog. Original patch by Saimadhav Heblikar. - Issue #18410: Add test for IDLE's search dialog.

What's New in IDLE 3.5.1? ========================= *Release date: 2015-12-06* - Issue 15348: Stop the debugger engine (normally in a user process) before closing the debugger window (running in the IDLE process). This prevents the RuntimeErrors that were being caught and ignored. - Issue #24455: Prevent IDLE from hanging when a) closing the shell while the debugger is active (15347); b) closing the debugger with the [X] button (15348); and c) activating the debugger when already active (24455). The patch by Mark Roseman does this by making two changes. 1. Suspend and resume the gui.interaction method with the tcl vwait mechanism intended for this purpose (instead of root.mainloop & .quit). 2. In gui.run, allow any existing interaction to terminate first. - Change 'The program' to 'Your program' in an IDLE 'kill program?' message to make it clearer that the program referred to is the currently running user program, not IDLE itself. - Issue #24750: Improve the appearance of the IDLE editor window status bar. Patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #25313: Change the handling of new built-in text color themes to better address the compatibility problem introduced by the addition of IDLE Dark. Consistently use the revised idleConf.CurrentTheme everywhere in idlelib. - Issue #24782: Extension configuration is now a tab in the IDLE Preferences dialog rather than a separate dialog. The former tabs are now a sorted list. Patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #22726: Re-activate the config dialog help button with some content about the other buttons and the new IDLE Dark theme. - Issue #24820: IDLE now has an 'IDLE Dark' built-in text color theme. It is more or less IDLE Classic inverted, with a cobalt blue background. Strings, comments, keywords, ... are still green, red, orange, ... . To use it with IDLEs released before November 2015, hit the 'Save as New Custom Theme' button and enter a new name, such as 'Custom Dark'. The custom theme will work with any IDLE release, and can be modified. - Issue #25224: README.txt is now an idlelib index for IDLE developers and curious users. The previous user content is now in the IDLE doc chapter. 'IDLE' now means 'Integrated Development and Learning Environment'. - Issue #24820: Users can now set breakpoint colors in Settings -> Custom Highlighting. Original patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #24972: Inactive selection background now matches active selection background, as configured by users, on all systems. Found items are now always highlighted on Windows. Initial patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #24570: Idle: make calltip and completion boxes appear on Macs affected by a tk regression. Initial patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #24988: Idle ScrolledList context menus (used in debugger) now work on Mac Aqua. Patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #24801: Make right-click for context menu work on Mac Aqua. Patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #25173: Associate tkinter messageboxes with a specific widget. For Mac OSX, make them a 'sheet'. Patch by Mark Roseman. - Issue #25198: Enhance the initial html viewer now used for Idle Help. * Properly indent fixed-pitch text (patch by Mark Roseman). * Give code snippet a very Sphinx-like light blueish-gray background. * Re-use initial width and height set by users for shell and editor. * When the Table of Contents (TOC) menu is used, put the section header at the top of the screen. - Issue #25225: Condense and rewrite Idle doc section on text colors. - Issue #21995: Explain some differences between IDLE and console Python. - Issue #22820: Explain need for *print* when running file from Idle editor. - Issue #25224: Doc: augment Idle feature list and no-subprocess section. - Issue #25219: Update doc for Idle command line options. Some were missing and notes were not correct. - Issue #24861: Most of idlelib is private and subject to change. Use idleib.idle.* to start Idle. See idlelib.__init__.__doc__. - Issue #25199: Idle: add synchronization comments for future maintainers. - Issue #16893: Replace help.txt with help.html for Idle doc display. The new idlelib/help.html is rstripped Doc/build/html/library/idle.html. It looks better than help.txt and will better document Idle as released. The tkinter html viewer that works for this file was written by Mark Roseman. The now unused EditorWindow.HelpDialog class and helt.txt file are deprecated. - Issue #24199: Deprecate unused idlelib.idlever with possible removal in 3.6. - Issue #24790: Remove extraneous code (which also create 2 & 3 conflicts).

Changes are written to HOME/.idlerc/config-extensions.cfg. Original patch by Tal Einat. - Issue #16233: A module browser (File : Class Browser, Alt+C) requires an editor window with a filename. When Class Browser is requested otherwise, from a shell, output window, or 'Untitled' editor, Idle no longer displays an error box. It now pops up an Open Module box (Alt+M). If a valid name is entered and a module is opened, a corresponding browser is also opened. - Issue #4832: Save As to type Python files automatically adds .py to the name you enter (even if your system does not display it). Some systems automatically add .txt when type is Text files. - Issue #21986: Code objects are not normally pickled by the pickle module.
