[New-bugs-announce] [issue20636] Better repr for tkinter widgets

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

Here is a patch which adds more helpful repr for Tkinter widgets. Was

    <tkinter.Button object at 0xb6aa6964>

Becomes:

    <tkinter.Button object .3070343372.3066782348>

or (if you assigned names to widgets)

    <tkinter.Button object .panel.b1>

This is very helpful for debugging.
