code use proper functions to get paths.
Changed the name of tar file that is searched for to be absolute (i.e., not use
os.extsep) since filename is locked in based on name of file in CVS
(testtar.tar).
Closes bug #731403 .
1. Add additional buttons for Python Copyright and Credits
2. Use the Python LICENSE file instead of the old IDLE LICENSE.txt
3. Add additional buttons for IDLE's README and NEWS
4. Implement a method to read text from a _Printer object
5. Rename the Ok button to Close
6. Clean up to conform to Python code formatting standards
textView.py:
1. Change background to white on all platforms
2. Increase height of frame
3. Add an optional parameter to textViewer to allow inserting text into
the viewer instead of reading a file.
4. Rename the Ok button to Close

aboutDialog.py textView.py
Eliminates the eval() step in the csv module resulting in better
security, more clarity, and a little speed.
The idea is to make successive attempts to coerce the string to
a python type:
int(s), long(s), float(s), etc.
As a by-product, eliminates a bare 'except' statement.
* Indicate that arguments are optional for most builtin type constructors.
* Replace e.g. in staticmethod() and classmethod() docs.
* Add \code{} markup to some in-line code examples.
The docs recommend filling by fill(1), drawing commands, fill(0).
However, the filling did not actually take place until the next
draw command. Fixed by issuing a null draw command at the end
of the fill method.
stack usage on FreeBSD, requiring the recursion limit to be lowered
further. Building with gcc 2.95 (the standard compiler on FreeBSD 4.x)
is now also affected.
The underlying issue is that FreeBSD's pthreads implementation has a
hard-coded 1MB stack size for the initial (or "primary") thread, which
can not be changed without rebuilding libc_r. Exhausting this stack
results in a bus error.
Building without pthreads (configure --without-threads), or linking
with the port of the Linux pthreads library (aka Linuxthreads) instead
of libc_r, avoids this limitation.
On OS/2, only gcc 3.2 is affected and the stack size is controllable,
so the special handling has been removed.
reorganise modules, so that most standard extensions are built into
the Python DLL. this slightly improves performance; reduces
fragmentation of address spaces and slightly reduces memory footprint.
