[New-bugs-announce] [issue2704] IDLE: Patch to make PyShell behave more like a Terminal interface

[Roger Serwy]

New submission from Roger Serwy <roger.serwy at gmail.com>:

See attached diff file. Patching PyShell.py Version 1.2.1

PyShell ignores letter/number key presses when the cursor is not on the
command line. Instead it should redirect any letter/number key presses
to the command line. (Changed ModifiedUndoDelegator)

Also, up/down arrow presses should scroll through history when the
cursor is on the command line. But when the cursor is not on the command
line, the arrow keys should move around the PyShell window. (Added new
bindings with conditional logic)
