Another applet mechanism has been developed for Python on Mac OS X and
trying to use the -c "__import__('run').main()" trick is just not working.
macosx_main.py is a new file which should be used as the startup file for
Mac OS X applet bundles. This startup file understands a -p option, which
when seen will start run.main(). When running as an applet, this seems like
the best approach.
used that.
wrap_strftime(): Removed the most irritating uses of buf.
TestDate.test_ordinal_conversions(): The C implementation is fast enough
that we can afford to check the endpoints of every year. Also added
tm_yday tests at the endpoints.
M PyShell.py
M ScriptBinding.py
1. Update ScriptBinding.py to highlight a syntax error in the Edit window,
and place the cursor on the error. Add a syntax check to the
Run Script event instead of waiting until the script tries to run and
raises a syntax error in the shell, forcing the user to navigate back
to the Edit window to fix it.
2. Modify tag_config's appropriately in PyShell.py and ColorDelegator.py
3. Some minor clean-up in ScriptBinding.py
[ 643835 ] Set Next Statement for Python debuggers
with a few tweaks by me: adding an unsigned or two, mentioning that
not all jumps are allowed in the doc for pdb, adding a NEWS item and
a note to whatsnew, and AuCTeX doing something cosmetic to libpdb.tex.

M IOBinding.py
M PyShell.py
* Could not remove last set of saved breakpoints from a file
* Starting with empty edit window, could not load a file
* Multiple adjacent breakpoints were saved as one breakpoint
* Storing breakpoints whenever a file is closed can get them out
of synch with the saved version of a file. Only store them when the
file is saved.
* Add comment on current limitations on file editing in the presence of
breakpoints.
* Replace get_current_breaks() with update_breakpoints(), add an update to
PyShellEditorWindow.breakpoints, which is the master breakpoint data
structure, and which is used to reload the subprocess debugger.
* Revert Debugger.Debugger.load_breakpoints() to use editwin.breakpoints.
It is easier to debug the debugger if the breakpoint list in IDLE is
identical to the list in the subprocess debugger and is transferred when
the subprocess debugger is restarted, because this list can be easily
queried.
* Cleanup some linespacing and comments in IOBinding.py

Calltip fetch was erroring when an Edit window was used without a Shell.
Also, fix CallTipWindow.py so test code will run and add a comment about a

containing class objects) are allowed as the second argument.
This makes issubclass() more similar to isinstance() where recursive
tuples are allowed too.
test_resource calls resource.setrlimit() to change the file size limits.
This fails on Cygwin, which supports setrlimit() and getrlimit(), just not
changing that particular setting. (The same would apply to any other
platform that has those functions but not that particular feature.)
Since getrlimit() works and setrlimit() can be used for other reasons, a
check for ValueError was added to that part of the test.
supported as the second argument. This has the same meaning as
for isinstance(), i.e. issubclass(X, (A, B)) is equivalent
to issubclass(X, A) or issubclass(X, B). Compared to isinstance(),
this patch does not search the tuple recursively for classes, i.e.
any entry in the tuple that is not a class, will result in a
TypeError.
This closes SF patch #649608.
This patch allows ZipFile.writestr() to be called with
an archive file name instead of a ZipInfo instance:
z = ZipFile("myarchive.zip", "w")
z.writestr("foo/baz/file.ext", data)
z.close()
I found the old writestr() method very inconvenient
for simple (but common) things.
If called with a file name instead of a ZipInfo
instance, the date_time is set to the current date/time,
which makes sense to me for anonymous data.
Most of these patches are from Thomas Heller, with long lines folded
by Tim. The change to test_descr.py is from Guido. See the bug report.
Not a bugfix candidate -- METH_CLASS is new in 2.3.
attribute, and modify _munge_whitespace() to recognize Unicode strings
and use unicode_whitespace_trans to munge them. Still need to add a
test to make sure I've really fixed the bug.
this can result in significantly smaller files. All classes as well as the
open function now accept an optional binary parameter, which defaults to
False for backward compatibility. Added a small test suite, updated the
libref documentation (including documenting the exported classes and fixing
a few other nits) and added a note about the change to Misc/NEWS.
1. Format and print exceptions raised in user code.
M rpc.py
1. Additional debug messages in rpc.py
2. Move debug message enable switch from SocketIO to Client and Server
to allow separate activation.
3. Add indication of origin (client or server) to debug message
4. Add sequence number to appropriate debug messages
5. Pass string exception arg as a string rather than a tuple.
Although motived by Cygwin, this patch will prevent
test_commands from failing on Unixes that support
ACLs. For example, the following is an excerpt from
the Solaris ls manpage:
...
-rwxrwxrwx+ 1 smith dev 10876 May 16 9:42 part2
The plus sign indicates that there is an ACL associated
with the file.
...
This patch updates regrtest.py to understand which
tests are normally skipped under Cygwin. The list of
tests was verified with the Cygwin Python maintainer.
Just van Rossum showed a weird, but clever way for pure python code to
trigger the BadInternalCall. The C code had assumed that calling a class
constructor would return an instance of that class; however, classes that
abuse __new__ can invalidate that assumption.
real module, by filtering out aliased methods. This, combined with
the recent fixes to pyclbr, make it possible to enable more tests with
fewer exceptions.
- The _modules cache now uses the full module name.
- The meaning of the (internal!!!) inpackage argument is changed: it
now is the parent package name, or None. readmodule() doesn't
support this argument any more.
- The meaning of the path argument is changed: when inpackage is set,
the module *must* be found in this path (as is the case for the real
package search).
- Miscellaneous cleanup, e.g. fixed __all__, changed some comments and
doc strings, etc.
- Adapted the unit tests to the new semantics (nothing much changed,
really). Added some debugging code to the unit tests that print
helpful extra info to stderr when a test fails (interpreting the
test failures turned out to be hard without these).

When a subtype .mro() fails, we need to reset the type whose __bases__
are being changed, too. Fix + test.
Constructor accepts optional keyword arguments after a optional items list.
Add fromkeys() as an alternate constructor from an iterable over keys.

Plus a couple of extra tests beyond what's up there.
It hasn't been as carefully reviewed as it perhaps should, so all readers
are encouraged, nay exhorted, to give this a close reading.
There are still a couple of oddities related to assigning to __name__,
but I intend to solicit python-dev's opinions on these.

interrupted. A try/finally will do nicely. Maybe other classes need
this too, but since they manipulate more state it's less clear that
that is always the right thing, and I'm in a hurry.
Backport candidate.
Previously archive_util.py attempted to spawn an
external 'zip' program for the zip action, if this fails, an
attempt to import zipfile.py is made...
This bites folks who have 'old' or non-conforming zip
programs on windows platforms. This change tries the 'zipfile'
module first, falling back to spawning a zip process if
the module isn't available.
[ 634250 ] SearchDialogBase.py fix for Tk 8.4.1
SearchDialogBase refers to the grid 'col' option
considered ambiguous with Python 2.2.2 and Tk 8.4.1.
The correct name is 'column'.
Make sure we have a UNIX-compatible termios.
Apparently, McMillan Installer made a termios on windows
which caused unix_getpass() to be used instead of win_getpass().
