* The invoke methods of the three Tkinter widgets Button,
Checkbutton and Radiobutton should return the value returned by
the callback, (like the Menu widget does):
def invoke(self):
return self.tk.call(self._w, 'invoke')
* The select_from method of the Canvas widget should use 'from', not
'set':
def select_from(self, tagOrId, index):
self.tk.call(self._w, 'select', 'from', tagOrId, index)
Currently, if you use select_from, you get the error message:
'TclError: bad select option "set": must be adjust, clear, from, item, or to'
* The 'entrycget' and 'type' methods of the Tk menu widget are
missing from Tkinter.
* There is a bug in grid_columnconfigure and grid_rowconfigure. For
example, this should return the current value of the 'minsize'
option for column 0:
f.grid_columnconfigure(0, 'minsize')
Instead it returns the same as:
f.grid_columnconfigure(0)
I suggest that the hint given in the comment in the
Tkinter.Misc.configure method should be followed - "ought to
generalize this so tag_config etc. can use it". Repeating the
same configure code several times in Tkinter is inviting errors.
[I did not follow this advice --G]
* The grid_slaves method should handle options. Currently, to pass
options to the grid_slaves method, you have to do something like:
grid_slaves('-row', 1)
Lots of support for new macros defined in myformat.sty; including the new
indexing macros, seealso environment & friends, and the byte code instruction
support.
and ask the user for permission to set buffer-local variables depending on
the user's configuration. Not really needed since this doesn't get edited
often.
Bumped the version number to 1.5; date still needs to be set.
retrieving files from the same host and directory, you had to close
the previous instance before opening a new one; and retrieving a
non-existent file would return an empty file. (The latter fix relies
on maybe an undocumented property of NLST -- NLST of a file returns
just that file, while NLST of a non-existent file returns nothing. A
side effect, unfortunately, seems to be that now ftp-retrieving an
*empty* directory may fail. Ah well.)
do_env_tableiii(), do_cmd_lineiii(): New functions to handle tableii and
tableiii environments.
Small changes to not add a superfluous space between a function name and the
comma in the index.
