In a new Python IDE editing window, type just 'return'. Then hit the
Run button. I get the following traceback:
----------
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "Manfred:Dev:Python 2.1:Mac:Tools:IDE:Wtraceback.py", line 41,
in traceback
self.syntaxerror()
File "Manfred:Dev:Python 2.1:Mac:Tools:IDE:Wtraceback.py", line 59,
in syntaxerror
charno = charno - 1
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for -
----------
Of course, this should give a syntax error (try it in the Python
Interpreter window to see the correct traceback). But it seems the
charno variable isn't set right when the IDE wants to report the error.
