bpo-39852: IDLE 'Go to line' deletes selection, updates status (GH-18801)
...
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.

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.

bpo-27099: IDLE - Convert built-in extensions to regular features ( #2494 )
...
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.
