The new idlelib/idle.html is copied from Doc/build/html/idle.html.
It looks better than help.txt and will better document Idle as released.
The tkinter html viewer that works for this file was written by Rose Roseman.
The new code is in idlelib/help.py, a new file for help menu classes.
The now unused EditorWindow.HelpDialog class and helt.txt file are deprecated.
Python.h header to fix a compilation error with OpenMP. PyThreadState_GET()
becomes an alias to PyThreadState_Get() to avoid ABI incompatibilies.
It is important that the _PyThreadState_Current variable is always accessed
with the same implementation of pyatomic.h. Use the PyThreadState_Get()
function so extension modules will all reuse the same implementation.
of datetime.datetime: microseconds are now rounded to nearest with ties going
to nearest even integer (ROUND_HALF_EVEN), instead of being rounding towards
zero (ROUND_DOWN). It's important that these methods use the same rounding
mode than datetime.timedelta to keep the property:
(datetime(1970,1,1) + timedelta(seconds=t)) == datetime.utcfromtimestamp(t)
It also the rounding mode used by round(float) for example.
Add more unit tests on the rounding mode in test_datetime.
On Windows, the tv_sec field of the timeval structure has the type C long,
whereas it has the type C time_t on all other platforms. A C long has a size of
32 bits (signed inter, 1 bit for the sign, 31 bits for the value) which is not
enough to store an Epoch timestamp after the year 2038.
Add the _PyTime_AsTimevalTime_t() function written for datetime.datetime.now():
convert a _PyTime_t timestamp to a (secs, us) tuple where secs type is time_t.
It allows to support dates after the year 2038 on Windows.
Enhance also _PyTime_AsTimeval_impl() to detect overflow on the number of
seconds when rounding the number of microseconds.
* test_eintr: support verbose mode, don't redirect eintr_tester output into
a pipe
* eintr_tester: replace os.fork() with subprocess to have a cleaner child
process (ex: don't inherit setitimer())
* eintr_tester: kill the process if the unit test fails
* test_open/test_os_open(): write support.PIPE_MAX_SIZE bytes instead of
support.PIPE_MAX_SIZE*3 bytes
