+Convert IDLE's built-in 'extensions' to regular features.
+
+About 10 IDLE features were implemented as supposedly optional extensions.
+Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for users and not good
+for maintenance.  Hence the conversion.
+
+The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings for
+builtin features are now handled uniformly.  Now, editing a binding in a
+keyset only affects its value in the keyset.  All bindings are defined
+together in the system-specific default keysets in config- extensions.def.
+All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config- extension.cfg.  All take
+effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok.
+
+The affected events are '<<force-open-completions>>', '<<expand-word>>',
+'<<force-open-calltip>>', '<<flash-paren>>', '<<format-paragraph>>', '<<run-
+module>>', '<<check-module>>', and '<<zoom-height>>'.  Any (global)
+customizations made before 3.6.3 will not affect their keyset- specific
+customization after 3.6.3. and vice versa.

+In configdialog: Document causal pathways in create_font_tab docstring.
+Simplify some attribute names. Move set_samples calls to var_changed_font
+(idea from Cheryl Sabella).  Move related functions to positions after the
+create widgets function.
+
+In test_configdialog: Fix test_font_set so not order dependent.  Fix renamed
+test_indent_scale so it tests the widget.  Adjust tests for movement of
+set_samples call.  Add tests for load functions.  Put all font tests in one
+class and tab indent tests in another.  Except for two lines, these tests
+completely cover the related functions.

+gdb integration commands (py-bt, etc.) work on optimized shared builds now,

+PyEval_EvalFrameEx on non-debug shared builds.  This broke the ability to

-Convert IDLE's built-in 'extensions' to regular features.
-
-About 10 IDLE features were implemented as supposedly optional
-extensions.  Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for
-users and not good for maintenance.  Hence the conversion.
-
-The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings
-for builtin features are now handled uniformly.  Now, editing a binding
-in a keyset only affects its value in the keyset.  All bindings are
-defined together in the system-specific default keysets in config-
-extensions.def.  All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config-
-extension.cfg.  All take effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok.
-
-The affected events are '<<force-open-completions>>', '<<expand-word>>',
-'<<force-open-calltip>>', '<<flash-paren>>', '<<format-paragraph>>',
-'<<run-module>>', '<<check-module>>', and '<<zoom-height>>'.  Any
-(global) customizations made before 3.6.3 will not affect their keyset-
-specific customization after 3.6.3. and vice versa.
-
-Inital patch by Charles Wohlganger.
