Raw Blame History

Thu Apr 22 23:20:17 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* help.txt:
Bunch of updates necessary due to recent changes; added docs for File
menu, command line and color preferences.
* Bindings.py: Remove obsolete 'script' menu.
* TODO.txt: Several wishes fulfilled.
* OutputWindow.py:
Moved classes OnDemandOutputWindow and PseudoFile here,
from ScriptBinding.py where they are no longer needed.
* ScriptBinding.py:
Mostly rewritten. Instead of the old Run module and Debug module,
there are two new commands:
Import module (F5) imports or reloads the module and also adds its
name to the __main__ namespace. This gets executed in the PyShell
window under control of its debug settings.
Run script (Control-F5) is similar but executes the contents of the
file directly in the __main__ namespace.
* PyShell.py: Nits: document use of $IDLESTARTUP; display idle version
* idlever.py: New version to celebrate new command line
* OutputWindow.py: Added flush(), for completeness.
* PyShell.py:
A lot of changes to make the command line more useful. You can now do:
idle.py -e file ... -- to edit files
idle.py script arg ... -- to run a script
idle.py -c cmd arg ... -- to run a command
Other options, see also the usage message (also new!) for more details:
-d -- enable debugger
-s -- run $IDLESTARTUP or $PYTHONSTARTUP
-t title -- set Python Shell window's title
sys.argv is set accordingly, unless -e is used.
sys.path is absolutized, and all relevant paths are inserted into it.
Other changes:
- the environment in which commands are executed is now the
__main__ module
- explicitly save sys.stdout etc., don't restore from sys.__stdout__
- new interpreter methods execsource(), execfile(), stuffsource()
- a few small nits
* TODO.txt:
Some more TODO items. Made up my mind about command line args,
Run/Import, __main__.
* ColorDelegator.py:
Super-elegant patch by Tim Peters that speeds up colorization
dramatically (up to 15 times he claims). Works by reading more than
one line at a time, up to 100-line chunks (starting with one line and
then doubling up to the limit). On a typical machine (e.g. Tim's
P5-166) this doesn't reduce interactive responsiveness in a noticeable
way.
Wed Apr 21 15:49:34 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* ColorDelegator.py:
Patch by Tim Peters to speed up colorizing of big multiline strings.
Tue Apr 20 17:32:52 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* extend.txt:
For an event 'foo-bar', the corresponding method must be called
foo_bar_event(). Therefore, fix the references to zoom_height() in
the example.
* IdlePrefs.py: Restored the original IDLE color scheme.
* PyShell.py, IdlePrefs.py, ColorDelegator.py, EditorWindow.py:
Color preferences code by Loren Luke (massaged by me somewhat)
* SearchEngine.py:
Patch by Mark Favas: it fixes the search engine behaviour where an
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).
Mon Apr 19 16:26:02 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* TODO.txt: A few wishes are now fulfilled.
* AutoIndent.py: Tim Peters implements some of my wishes:
o Makes the tab key intelligently insert spaces when appropriate
(see Help list banter twixt David Ascher and me; idea stolen from
every other editor on earth <wink>).
o newline_and_indent_event trims trailing whitespace on the old
line (pymode and Codewright).
o newline_and_indent_event no longer fooled by trailing whitespace or
comment after ":" (pymode, PTUI).
o newline_and_indent_event now reduces the new line's indentation after
return, break, continue, raise and pass stmts (pymode).
The last two are easy to fool in the presence of strings &
continuations, but pymode requires Emacs's high-powered C parsing
functions to avoid that in finite time.

Python release 1.5.2c1, IDLE version 0.4
======================================================================
Wed Apr 7 18:41:59 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* README.txt, NEWS.txt: New version.
* idlever.py: Version bump awaiting impending new release.
(Not much has changed :-( )
Mon Mar 29 14:52:28 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* ScriptBinding.py, PyShell.py:
At Tim Peters' recommendation, add a dummy flush() method to
PseudoFile.
Thu Mar 11 23:21:23 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* PathBrowser.py: Don't crash when sys.path contains an empty string.
* Attic/Outline.py: This file was never supposed to be part of IDLE.
* PathBrowser.py:
- Don't crash in the case where a superclass is a string instead of a
pyclbr.Class object; this can happen when the superclass is
unrecognizable (to pyclbr), e.g. when module renaming is used.
- Show a watch cursor when calling pyclbr (since it may take a while
recursively parsing imported modules!).
Wed Mar 10 05:18:02 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* EditorWindow.py, Bindings.py: Add PathBrowser to File module
* PathBrowser.py: "Path browser" - 4 scrolled lists displaying:
directories on sys.path
modules in selected directory
classes in selected module
methods of selected class
Sinlge clicking in a directory, module or class item updates the next
column with info about the selected item. Double clicking in a
module, class or method item opens the file (and selects the clicked
item if it is a class or method).
I guess eventually I should be using a tree widget for this, but the
ones I've seen don't work well enough, so for now I use the old
Smalltalk or NeXT style multi-column hierarchical browser.
* MultiScrolledLists.py:
New utility: multiple scrolled lists in parallel
* ScrolledList.py: - White background.
- Display "(None)" (or text of your choosing) when empty.
- Don't set the focus.
======================================================================
Python release 1.5.2b2, IDLE version 0.3
======================================================================
Wed Feb 17 22:47:41 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* NEWS.txt: News in 0.3.
* README.txt, idlever.py: Bump version to 0.3.
* EditorWindow.py:
After all, we don't need to call the callbacks ourselves!
* WindowList.py:
When deleting, call the callbacks *after* deleting the window from our list!
* EditorWindow.py:
Fix up the Windows menu via the new callback mechanism instead of
depending on menu post commands (which don't work when the menu is
torn off).
* WindowList.py:
Support callbacks to patch up Windows menus everywhere.
* ChangeLog: Oh, why not. Checking in the Emacs-generated change log.
Tue Feb 16 22:34:17 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* ScriptBinding.py:
Only pop up the stack viewer when requested in the Debug menu.
Mon Feb 8 22:27:49 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* WindowList.py: Don't crash if a window no longer exists.
* TODO.txt: Restructured a bit.
Mon Feb 1 23:06:17 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* PyShell.py: Add current dir or paths of file args to sys.path.
* Debugger.py: Add canonic() function -- for brand new bdb.py feature.
* StackViewer.py: Protect against accessing an empty stack.
Fri Jan 29 20:44:45 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* ZoomHeight.py:
Use only the height to decide whether to zoom in or out.
Thu Jan 28 22:24:30 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* EditorWindow.py, FileList.py:
Make sure the Tcl variables are shared between windows.
* PyShell.py, EditorWindow.py, Bindings.py:
Move menu/key binding code from Bindings.py to EditorWindow.py,
with changed APIs -- it makes much more sense there.
Also add a new feature: if the first character of a menu label is
a '!', it gets a checkbox. Checkboxes are bound to Boolean Tcl variables
that can be accessed through the new getvar/setvar/getrawvar API;
the variable is named after the event to which the menu is bound.
* Debugger.py: Add Quit button to the debugger window.
* SearchDialog.py:
When find_again() finds exactly the current selection, it's a failure.
* idle.py, Attic/idle: Rename idle -> idle.py
Mon Jan 18 15:18:57 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* EditorWindow.py, WindowList.py: Only deiconify when iconic.
* TODO.txt: Misc
Tue Jan 12 22:14:34 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* testcode.py, Attic/test.py:
Renamed test.py to testcode.py so one can import Python's
test package from inside IDLE. (Suggested by Jack Jansen.)
* EditorWindow.py, ColorDelegator.py:
Hack to close a window that is colorizing.
* Separator.py: Vladimir Marangozov's patch:
The separator dances too much and seems to jump by arbitrary amounts
in arbitrary directions when I try to move it for resizing the frames.
This patch makes it more quiet.
Mon Jan 11 14:52:40 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* TODO.txt: Some requests have been fulfilled.
* EditorWindow.py:
Set the cursor to a watch when opening the class browser (which may
take quite a while, browsing multiple files).
Newer, better center() -- but assumes no wrapping.
* SearchBinding.py:
Got rid of debug print statement in goto_line_event().
* ScriptBinding.py:
I think I like it better if it prints the traceback even when it displays
the stack viewer.
* Debugger.py: Bind ESC to close-window.
* ClassBrowser.py: Use a HSeparator between the classes and the items.
Make the list of classes wider by default (40 chars).
Bind ESC to close-window.
* Separator.py:
Separator classes (draggable divider between two panes).
Sat Jan 9 22:01:33 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* WindowList.py:
Don't traceback when wakeup() is called when the window has been destroyed.
This can happen when a torn-of Windows menu references closed windows.
And Tim Peters claims that the Windows menu is his favorite to tear off...
* EditorWindow.py: Allow tearing off of the Windows menu.
* StackViewer.py: Close on ESC.
* help.txt: Updated a bunch of things (it was mostly still 0.1!)
* extend.py: Added ScriptBinding to standard bindings.
* ScriptBinding.py:
This now actually works. See doc string. It can run a module (i.e.
import or reload) or debug it (same with debugger control). Output
goes to a fresh output window, only created when needed.

Paul Prescod's patches to allow the stack viewer to pop up when a
traceback is printed.
Thu Jan 7 00:12:15 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* FormatParagraph.py:
Change paragraph width limit to 70 (like Emacs M-Q).

Separating TODO from README. Slight reformulation of features. No
exact release date.
* TODO.txt: Separating TODO from README.
Mon Jan 4 21:19:09 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>

* FormatParagraph.py: Added Unix Meta-q key binding;
fix find_paragraph when at start of file.
* AutoExpand.py: Added Meta-/ binding for Unix as alt for Alt-/.
* SearchBinding.py:
Add unix binding for grep (otherwise the menu entry doesn't work!)
* ZoomHeight.py: Adjusted Unix height to work with fvwm96. :=(
* GrepDialog.py: Need to import sys!
* help.txt, extend.txt, README.txt: Formatted some paragraphs
* extend.py, FormatParagraph.py:
Add new extension to reformat a (text) paragraph.
* ZoomHeight.py: Typo in Win specific height setting.
Sun Jan 3 00:47:35 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* AutoIndent.py: Added something like Tim Peters' backspace patch.
* ZoomHeight.py: Adapted to Unix (i.e., more hardcoded constants).
Sat Jan 2 21:28:54 1999 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* keydefs.py, idlever.py, idle.pyw, idle.bat, help.txt, extend.txt, extend.py, eventparse.py, ZoomHeight.py, WindowList.py, UndoDelegator.py, StackViewer.py, SearchEngine.py, SearchDialogBase.py, SearchDialog.py, ScrolledList.py, SearchBinding.py, ScriptBinding.py, ReplaceDialog.py, Attic/README, README.txt, PyShell.py, Attic/PopupMenu.py, OutputWindow.py, IOBinding.py, Attic/HelpWindow.py, History.py, GrepDialog.py, FileList.py, FrameViewer.py, EditorWindow.py, Debugger.py, Delegator.py, ColorDelegator.py, Bindings.py, ClassBrowser.py, AutoExpand.py, AutoIndent.py:
Checking in IDLE 0.2.
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.
Fri Dec 18 15:52:54 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* FileList.py, ClassBrowser.py:
Fix the class browser to work even when the file is not on sys.path.
Tue Dec 8 20:39:36 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* Attic/turtle.py: Moved to Python 1.5.2/Lib
Fri Nov 27 03:19:20 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* help.txt: Typo
* EditorWindow.py, FileList.py: Support underlining of menu labels
* Bindings.py:
New approach, separate tables for menus (platform-independent) and key
definitions (platform-specific), and generating accelerator strings
automatically from the key definitions.
Mon Nov 16 18:37:42 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* Attic/README: Clarify portability and main program.
* Attic/README: Added intro for 0.1 release and append Grail notes.
Mon Oct 26 18:49:00 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* Attic/turtle.py: root is now a global called _root
Sat Oct 24 16:38:38 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* Attic/turtle.py: Raise the root window on reset().
Different action on WM_DELETE_WINDOW is more likely to do the right thing,
allowing us to destroy old windows.
* Attic/turtle.py:
Split the goto() function in two: _goto() is the internal one,
using Canvas coordinates, and goto() uses turtle coordinates
and accepts variable argument lists.
* Attic/turtle.py: Cope with destruction of the window
* Attic/turtle.py: Turtle graphics
* Debugger.py: Use of Breakpoint class should be bdb.Breakpoint.
Mon Oct 19 03:33:40 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* SearchBinding.py:
Speed up the search a bit -- don't drag a mark around...
* PyShell.py:
Change our special entries from <console#N> to <pyshell#N>.
Patch linecache.checkcache() to keep our special entries alive.
Add popup menu to all editor windows to set a breakpoint.
* Debugger.py:
Use and pass through the 'force' flag to set_dict() where appropriate.
Default source and globals checkboxes to false.
Don't interact in user_return().
Add primitive set_breakpoint() method.
* ColorDelegator.py:
Raise priority of 'sel' tag so its foreground (on Windows) will take
priority over text colorization (which on Windows is almost the
same color as the selection background).
Define a tag and color for breakpoints ("BREAK").
* Attic/PopupMenu.py: Disable "Open stack viewer" and "help" commands.
* StackViewer.py:
Add optional 'force' argument (default 0) to load_dict().
If set, redo the display even if it's the same dict.
Fri Oct 16 21:10:12 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* StackViewer.py: Do nothing when loading the same dict as before.
* PyShell.py: Details for debugger interface.
* Debugger.py:
Restructured and more consistent. Save checkboxes across instantiations.
* EditorWindow.py, Attic/README, Bindings.py:
Get rid of conflicting ^X binding. Use ^W.
* Debugger.py, StackViewer.py:
Debugger can now show local and global variables.
* Debugger.py: Oops
* Debugger.py, PyShell.py: Better debugger support (show stack etc).
* Attic/PopupMenu.py: Follow renames in StackViewer module
* StackViewer.py:
Rename classes to StackViewer (the widget) and StackBrowser (the toplevel).
* ScrolledList.py: Add close() method
* EditorWindow.py: Clarify 'Open Module' dialog text
* StackViewer.py: Restructured into a browser and a widget.
Thu Oct 15 23:27:08 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* ClassBrowser.py, ScrolledList.py:
Generalized the scrolled list which is the base for the class and
method browser into a separate class in its own module.
* Attic/test.py: Cosmetic change
* Debugger.py: Don't show function name if there is none
Wed Oct 14 03:43:05 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* Debugger.py, PyShell.py: Polish the Debugger GUI a bit.
Closing it now also does the right thing.
Tue Oct 13 23:51:13 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* Debugger.py, PyShell.py, Bindings.py:
Ad primitive debugger interface (so far it will step and show you the
source, but it doesn't yet show the stack).
* Attic/README: Misc
* StackViewer.py: Whoops -- referenced self.top before it was set.
* help.txt: Added history and completion commands.
* help.txt: Updated
* FileList.py: Add class browser functionality.
* StackViewer.py:
Add a close() method and bind to WM_DELETE_WINDOW protocol
* PyShell.py: Clear the linecache before printing a traceback
* Bindings.py: Added class browser binding.
* ClassBrowser.py: Much improved, much left to do.
* PyShell.py: Make the return key do what I mean more often.
* ClassBrowser.py:
Adding the beginnings of a Class browser. Incomplete, yet.
* EditorWindow.py, Bindings.py:
Add new command, "Open module". You select or type a module name,
and it opens the source.
Mon Oct 12 23:59:27 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* PyShell.py: Subsume functionality from Popup menu in Debug menu.
Other stuff so the PyShell window can be resurrected from the Windows menu.
* FileList.py: Get rid of PopUp menu.
Create a simple Windows menu. (Imperfect when Untitled windows exist.)
Add wakeup() method: deiconify, raise, focus.
* EditorWindow.py: Generalize menu creation.
* Bindings.py: Add Debug and Help menu items.
* EditorWindow.py: Added a menu bar to every window.
* Bindings.py: Add menu configuration to the event configuration.
* Attic/PopupMenu.py: Pass a root to the help window.
* SearchBinding.py:
Add parent argument to 'to to line number' dialog box.
Sat Oct 10 19:15:32 1998 Guido van Rossum <guido@cnri.reston.va.us>
* StackViewer.py:
Add a label at the top showing (very basic) help for the stack viewer.
Add a label at the bottom showing the exception info.
* Attic/test.py, Attic/idle: Add Unix main script and test program.
* idle.pyw, help.txt, WidgetRedirector.py, UndoDelegator.py, StackViewer.py, SearchBinding.py, Attic/README, PyShell.py, Attic/PopupMenu.py, Percolator.py, Outline.py, IOBinding.py, History.py, Attic/HelpWindow.py, FrameViewer.py, FileList.py, EditorWindow.py, Delegator.py, ColorDelegator.py, Bindings.py, AutoIndent.py, AutoExpand.py:
