- On Win32, os.listdir now supports arbitrarily-long Unicode path names
|

|
(up to the system limit of 32K characters).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Use Win32 API to implement os.{access,chdir,chmod,mkdir,remove,rename,rmdir,utime}.
|
||||||
|
As a result, these functions now raise WindowsError instead of OSError.
|
||||||
|
|

- Calling Tk_Init twice is refused if the first call failed as that
|

may deadlock.

- Patch #721464: pdb.Pdb instances can now be given explicit stdin and
|
||||||
|
stdout arguments, making it possible to redirect input and output
|
||||||
|
for remote debugging.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Patch #1484695: Update the tarfile module to version 0.8. This fixes
|
||||||
|
a couple of issues, notably handling of long file names using the
|
||||||
|
GNU LONGNAME extension.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Patch #1478292. ``doctest.register_optionflag(name)`` shouldn't create a
|
||||||
|
new flag when ``name`` is already the name of an option flag.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Bug #1385040: don't allow "def foo(a=1, b): pass" in the compiler
|
||||||
|
package.
|
