1. Add additional buttons for Python Copyright and Credits
2. Use the Python LICENSE file instead of the old IDLE LICENSE.txt
3. Add additional buttons for IDLE's README and NEWS
4. Implement a method to read text from a _Printer object
5. Rename the Ok button to Close
6. Clean up to conform to Python code formatting standards
textView.py:
1. Change background to white on all platforms
2. Increase height of frame
3. Add an optional parameter to textViewer to allow inserting text into
the viewer instead of reading a file.
4. Rename the Ok button to Close
Modified Files:
aboutDialog.py textView.py
Window menu updates.
2. Display Python Shell window in Window menu
3. Remove some dead code in FileList.py

M WindowList.py
abnormal exit situations cleanly, especially stuck user threads. Future
plan is to intercept the user's atexit functions and run them under
IDLE's control.
The default font is not highlighted in the Options dialog when
IDLEfork is first installed.
2. Reduce default font to 10 pt and increase default window height to give
a better initial impression on Windows.

SF 661318
Adds autosave capability to IDLE and IDLE configuration dialog.
User can Run/F5 without explicit save dialog.
The default is to require the user to confirm the save.

e.g. further improve subprocess interrupt, exceptions, and termination.
2. Remove the workarounds in PyShell.py and ScriptBinding.py involving
interrupting the subprocess prior to killing it, not necessary anymore.
3. Fix a bug introduced at PyShell Rev 1.66: was getting extra shell menu
every time the shell window was recreated.

[ 735527 ] Re Bug [ 678325 ] ParenMatching Missing AutoIndent
AutoIndent was merged with EditorWindow, this patch corrects
the references in ParenMatch.
SF Patch 686254 "Run IDLEfork from any directory without set-up"
Allows IDLE to run when not installed and cwd is not the IDLE directory.
I took the liberty of moving it to the startup scripts since once IDLEfork
is again a part of Python it will be superfluous and I don't want it to
be forgotten. But it is very useful for those using IDLEfork standalone!

sys.path, prepend it. This allows the module to import other modules
in the same directory. Do the same for a script run from the command
line.
2. Tweak the IDLE usage message a bit more.

2. Remove the shell menu and associated bindings when running
without the subprocess.
3. Update the IDLE Help and usage text.
4. Update display_port_binding_error to suggest using -n

2. Add an indicator to the shell startup notice when running w/o
subprocess.
3. Improve exception reporting when running a command or script from the
command line.
4. Clarify the fact that breakpoints set or cleared after a file is
saved will revert to the saved state if the file is closed without
re-saving.
5. If user tries to exit or restart when user code is running, interrupt
the user code. This helps to eliminate occasional hanging
subprocesses on Windows (except for Freddy :).
M NEWS.txt
M PyShell.py
M ScriptBinding.py
This bug, henceforth designated Freddy, was due to the mistaken
elimination of the KeyboardInterrupt exception at the previous revision.
PyShell's unix_terminate hammer was masking the problem on Linux. On W2K
the subprocess MainThread was trying to print the exception after the
SockThread had ceased to service the socket. The subprocess would then
detach and spin when the GUI created the new subprocess.
