Terry Jan Reedy ff70289002 bpo-314777: IDLE - improve rstrip entry in doc (#3602)
'Strip trailing whitespace' is not limited to spaces.  Wording caters to beginners who
do know know the meaning of 'whitespace'.  Multiline string literals are not skipped.

wohlganger 58fc71c447 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.

Éric Araujo 713d3039dc Fix usage of :option: in the docs (#9312).
:option: is used to create a link to an option of python, not to mark
up any instance of any arbitrary command-line option.  These were
changed to ````.

For modules which do have a command-line interface, lists of options
have been properly marked up with the program/cmdoption directives
combo.  Options defined in such blocks can be linked to with :option:
later in the same file, they won’t link to an option of python.

Finally, the markup of command-line fragments in optparse.rst has
been cleaned to use ``x`` instead of ``"x"``, keeping that latter
form for actual Python strings.
