! What's New in IDLE 0.9b1+?
! ===================================
!
! *Release date: XX-XXX-2003*
!
! - (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 0.8.1?
- =============================
-
- *Release date: 22-Jul-2001*
-
- - New tarball released as a result of the 'revitalisation' of the IDLEfork
- project.
-
- - This release requires python 2.1 or better. Compatability with earlier
- versions of python (especially ancient ones like 1.5x) is no longer a
- priority in IDLEfork development.
-
- - This release is based on a merging of the earlier IDLE fork work with current
- cvs IDLE (post IDLE version 0.8), with some minor additional coding by Kurt
- B. Kaiser and Stephen M. Gava.
-
- - This release is basically functional but also contains some known breakages,
- particularly with running things from the shell window. Also the debugger is
- not working, but I believe this was the case with the previous IDLE fork
- release (0.7.1) as well.
-
- - This release is being made now to mark the point at which IDLEfork is
- launching into a new stage of development.
-
- - IDLEfork CVS will now be branched to enable further development and
- exploration of the two "execution in a remote process" patches submitted by
- David Scherer (David's is currently in IDLEfork) and GvR, while stabilisation
- and development of less heavyweight improvements (like user customisation)
- can continue on the trunk.
-
-
- What's New in IDLE fork 0.7.1?
- ==============================
-
- *Release date: 15-Aug-2000*
-
- - First project tarball released.
-
- - This was the first release of IDLE fork, which at this stage was a
- combination of IDLE 0.5 and the VPython idle fork, with additional changes
- coded by David Scherer, Peter Schneider-Kamp and Nicholas Riley.
-
-
-
- IDLE fork 0.7.1 - 29 May 2000
- -----------------------------
-
- David Scherer <dscherer@cmu.edu>
-
- - This is a modification of the CVS version of IDLE 0.5, updated as of
- 2000-03-09. It is alpha software and might be unstable. If it breaks, you
- get to keep both pieces.
-
- - If you have problems or suggestions, you should either contact me or post to
- the list at http://www.python.org/mailman/listinfo/idle-dev (making it clear
- that you are using this modified version of IDLE).
-
- - Changes:
-
- - The ExecBinding module, a replacement for ScriptBinding, executes programs
- in a separate process, piping standard I/O through an RPC mechanism to an
- OnDemandOutputWindow in IDLE. It supports executing unnamed programs
- (through a temporary file). It does not yet support debugging.
-
- - When running programs with ExecBinding, tracebacks will be clipped to
- exclude system modules. If, however, a system module calls back into the
- user program, that part of the traceback will be shown.
-
- - The OnDemandOutputWindow class has been improved. In particular, it now
- supports a readline() function used to implement user input, and a
- scroll_clear() operation which is used to hide the output of a previous run
- by scrolling it out of the window.
-
- - Startup behavior has been changed. By default IDLE starts up with just a
- blank editor window, rather than an interactive window. Opening a file in
- such a blank window replaces the (nonexistent) contents of that window
- instead of creating another window. Because of the need to have a
- well-known port for the ExecBinding protocol, only one copy of IDLE can be
- running. Additional invocations use the RPC mechanism to report their
- command line arguments to the copy already running.
-
- - The menus have been reorganized. In particular, the excessively large
- 'edit' menu has been split up into 'edit', 'format', and 'run'.
-
- - 'Python Documentation' now works on Windows, if the win32api module is
- present.
-
- - A few key bindings have been changed: F1 now loads Python Documentation
- instead of the IDLE help; shift-TAB is now a synonym for unindent.
-
- - New modules:
-
- ExecBinding.py Executes program through loader
- loader.py Bootstraps user program
- protocol.py RPC protocol
- Remote.py User-process interpreter
- spawn.py OS-specific code to start programs
-
- - Files modified:
-
- autoindent.py ( bindings tweaked )
- bindings.py ( menus reorganized )
- config.txt ( execbinding enabled )
- editorwindow.py ( new menus, fixed 'Python Documentation' )
- filelist.py ( hook for "open in same window" )
- formatparagraph.py ( bindings tweaked )
- idle.bat ( removed absolute pathname )
- idle.pyw ( weird bug due to import with same name? )
- iobinding.py ( open in same window, EOL convention )
- keydefs.py ( bindings tweaked )
- outputwindow.py ( readline, scroll_clear, etc )
- pyshell.py ( changed startup behavior )
- readme.txt ( <Recursion on file with id=1234567> )
