What's New in IDLE 1.0? |
======================= |
*Release date: 29-Jul-2003* |
- Added a banner to the shell discussing warnings possibly raised by personal |
firewall software. Added same comment to README.txt. |
- Calltip error when docstring was None Python Bug 775541 |
- Updated extend.txt, help.txt, and config-extensions.def to correctly |
reflect the current status of the configuration system. Python Bug 768469 |
- Fixed: Call Tip Trimming May Loop Forever. Python Patch 769142 (Daniels) |
- Replaced apply(f, args, kwds) with f(*args, **kwargs) to improve performance |
Python Patch 768187 |
- Break or continue statements outside a loop were causing IDLE crash |
Python Bug 767794 |
- Convert Unicode strings from readline to IOBinding.encoding. Also set |
sys.std{in|out|err}.encoding, for both the local and the subprocess case. |
SF IDLEfork patch 682347. |
- Extend AboutDialog.ViewFile() to support file encodings. Make the CREDITS |
file Latin-1. |
- Updated the About dialog to reflect re-integration into Python. Provide |
buttons to display Python's NEWS, License, and Credits, plus additional |
buttons for IDLE's README and NEWS. |
- TextViewer() now has a third parameter which allows inserting text into the |
viewer instead of reading from a file. |
- (Created the .../Lib/idlelib directory in the Python CVS, which is a clone of |
IDLEfork modified to install in the Python environment. The code in the |
interrupt module has been moved to thread.interrupt_main(). ) |
- Printing the Shell window was failing if it was not saved first SF 748975 |
- When using the Search in Files dialog, if the user had a selection |
highlighted in his Editor window, insert it into the dialog search field. |
- The Python Shell entry was disappearing from the Windows menu. |
- Update the Windows file list when a file name change occurs |
- Change to File / Open Module: always pop up the dialog, using the current |
selection as the default value. This is easier to use habitually. |
- Avoided a problem with starting the subprocess when 'localhost' doesn't |
resolve to the user's loopback interface. SF 747772 |
- Fixed an issue with highlighted errors never de-colorizing. SF 747677. Also |
improved notification of Tabnanny Token Error. |
- File / New will by default save in the directory of the Edit window from |
which it was initiated. SF 748973 Guido van Rossum patch. |
What's New in IDLEfork 0.9b1? |
============================= |
*Release date: 02-Jun-2003* |
- The current working directory of the execution environment (and shell |
following completion of execution) is now that of the module being run. |
- Added the delete-exitfunc option to config-main.def. (This option is not |
included in the Options dialog.) Setting this to True (the default) will |
cause IDLE to not run sys.exitfunc/atexit when the subprocess exits. |
- IDLE now preserves the line ending codes when editing a file produced on |
a different platform. SF 661759, SF 538584 |
- Reduced default editor font size to 10 point and increased window height |
to provide a better initial impression on Windows. |
- Options / Fonts/Tabs / Set Base Editor Font: List box was not highlighting |
the default font when first installed on Windows. SF 661676 |
- Added Autosave feature: when user runs code from edit window, if the file |
has been modified IDLE will silently save it if Autosave is enabled. The |
option is set in the Options dialog, and the default is to prompt the |
user to save the file. SF 661318 Bruce Sherwood patch. |
- Improved the RESTART annotation in the shell window when the user restarts |
the shell while it is generating output. Also improved annotation when user |
repeatedly hammers the Ctrl-F6 restart. |
- Allow IDLE to run when not installed and cwd is not the IDLE directory |
SF Patch 686254 "Run IDLEfork from any directory without set-up" - Raphael |
- When a module is run from an EditorWindow: if its directory is not in |
sys.path, prepend it. This allows the module to import other modules in |
the same directory. Do the same for a script run from the command line. |
- Correctly restart the subprocess if it is running user code and the user |
attempts to run some other module or restarts the shell. Do the same if |
the link is broken and it is possible to restart the subprocess and re- |
connect to the GUI. SF RFE 661321. |
