unsuccessful search wraps around and re-searches that part of the file
between the start of the search and the end of the file - only really
an issue for very large files, but... (also removes a redundant
m.span() call).
Much has changed -- too much, in fact, to write down.
The big news is that there's a standard way to write IDLE extensions;
see extend.txt. Some sample extensions have been provided, and
some existing code has been converted to extensions. Probably the
biggest new user feature is a new search dialog with more options,
search and replace, and even search in files (grep).
This is exactly as downloaded from my laptop after returning
from the holidays -- it hasn't even been tested on Unix yet.
