Printing to IDLE's Shell is often slower than printing to a system
terminal, but it can be made faster by pre-formatting a single
string before printing.
Keywords are present in the main module tab completion lists generated by rlcompleter, which is used by REPLs on *nix. Add all keywords to IDLE's main module name list except those already added from builtins (True, False, and None) . This list may also be used by Show Completions on the Edit menu, and its hot key.

It appears standard that moving the text insert cursor away from a selection clears the
selection. Clearing prevents accidental deletion of a possibly off-screen bit of text.
The update is for Ln and Col on the status bar.
Extra newlines are removed at the end of non-shell files. If the file only has newlines after stripping other trailing whitespace, all are removed, as is done by patchcheck.py.
The HTML5 output from Sphinx 2.x adds '<p>' tags within list elements. Using a new prevtag attribute, ignore these instead of emitting unwanted '\n\n'.
Also stop looking for 'first' classes on tags (no longer present) and fix the bug of double-spacing instead of single spacing after <pre> blocks.
This is done to compensate for the extra stack frames added by
IDLE itself, which cause problems when setting the recursion limit
to low values.
This wraps sys.setrecursionlimit() and sys.getrecursionlimit()
as invisibly as possible.
The initialize options are 1) add command line options, which are appended to sys.argv as if passed on a real command line, and 2) skip the shell restart. The customization dialog is accessed by a new entry on the Run menu.
The System Preferences Dock "prefer tabs always" setting disables some
IDLE features. Menus are a bit different than as described for Windows
and Linux.
There is only one trivial change to idle.rst. Nearly all the changes to help.html are the elimination of chapter and section numbers on headers due to changes in the build system. help.py no longer requires header numbering.
'Strip trailing whitespace' is not limited to spaces. Wording caters to beginners who
do know know the meaning of 'whitespace'. Multiline string literals are not skipped.
* News blurb.
Doc/build/html/library/idle.html, which is built from Doc/library/idle.rst.
Help.html is an rstrip()ed copy of idle.html that can be pushed.
The displayed content is unchanged because a) the version number is not
displayed, being inherent in the version displaying the file and b) the tt
tag was ignored by the custom parser in idlelib/help.py. The wrapped
<span class="pre"> tags remain as they were.
This will be merged in 3.6 (without conflict) because the 3.6 help.html is
a copy of the 3.5 file (which was a copy of the 3.4 file). The two files will
remain the same until either a) there is a content change that only applies
to one of them or b) 3.5 maintenance ends and the 3.6 file is itself rebased.
