Eric S. Raymond cfa4096618 Fixed autoraise glitches. 2001-01-23 15:49:34 +00:00
Eric S. Raymond f79cb2db3e Expose the autoraise capability. Improve the documentation. 2001-01-23 13:49:44 +00:00
Eric S. Raymond f7f185116a Rewrite webbrowser.py to fix various bugs following Ka-Ping Yee's
complaints.  The new version moves most of its initialization to
package load time; it's simpler, faster, smaller, and adds support for
Mozilla and Links.  Interpretation of the BROWSER variable now works
and is documented.  The open_new entry point and methods are marked
"deprecated; may be removed in 2.1".

Tim Peters e119006e7d Whitespace normalization. Top level of Lib now fixed-point for reindent.py! 2001-01-15 03:34:38 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 2d3eb133b7 SF Patch #103211.
Ping apparently doesn't check in Accepted patches, so I'm doing this
for him.

According to Ping: The name of the controller class should be
"Konqueror", not "Konquerer". (See the website
http://www.konqueror.org/.)

Guido van Rossum 2595a837b5 Typo for Mac code, fixing SF bug 12195. 2000-11-13 20:30:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 3944a01713 Do not set Konquerer to be the default browser if $KDEDIR is set -- some
Linux distributions which provide both KDE and Gnome set this environment
variable even if the user is not using KDE.  We do *not* want to start
Konquerer if KDE is not running unless the user actually tells us to!

Tim Peters f58a7aafea Implemented new os.startfile function, unique to Windows, exposing a
subset of Win32 ShellExecute's functionality.  Guido wants this because
IDLE's Help -> Docs function currently crashes his machine because of a
conflict between his version of Norton AntiVirus (6.10.20) and MS's
_popen.  Docs for startfile are being mailed to Fred (or just read the
docstring -- it tells the whole story).
Changed webbrowser.py to use os.startfile instead of os.popen on Windows.
Changed IDLE's EditorWindow.py to pass an absolute path for the docs
(hardcoding ShellExecute's "directory" arg to "." as used to be done let
IDLE work, but made the startfile command exceedingly obscure for other
uses -- the MS docs are terrible, of course, & still not sure I
understand it).
Note that Windows Python must link with shell32.lib now!  That's where
ShellExecute lives.

Guido van Rossum 1d62f492b0 Hack the Windows code to use os.popen().
The returned file is assigned to an instance variable;
otherwise the implied close hangs for a long time.
