What's New in IDLE 3.10.0
(since 3.9.0)
Released on 2021-10-04?
Released on 2021-10-04
=========================


bpo-40128: Mostly fix completions on macOS when not using tcl/tk 8.6.11
(as with 3.9).

bpo-33962: Move the indent space setting from the Font tab to the new Windows
tab. Patch by Mark Roseman and Terry Jan Reedy.

bpo-40468: Split the settings dialog General tab into Windows and Shell/Ed
tabs. Move help sources, which extend the Help menu, to the Extensions tab.
Make space for new options and shorten the dialog. The latter makes the
dialog better fit small screens.

bpo-44010: Highlight the new match statement's soft keywords: match, case,
and _. This highlighting is not perfect and will be incorrect in some rare
cases, especially for some _s in case patterns.

bpo-44026: Include interpreter's typo fix suggestions in message line
for NameErrors and AttributeErrors. Patch by E. Paine.

bpo-41611: Avoid occasional uncaught exceptions and freezing when using
completions on macOS.

bpo-37903: Add mouse actions to the shell sidebar. Left click and
optional drag selects one or more lines of text, as with the
editor line number sidebar. Right click after selecting text lines
displays a context menu with 'copy with prompts'. This zips together
prompts from the sidebar with lines from the selected text. This option
also appears on the context menu for the text.

bpo-43981: Fix reference leaks in test_sidebar and test_squeezer.
Patches by Terry Jan Reedy and Pablo Galindo

bpo-37892: Change Shell input indents from tabs to spaces. Shell input
now 'looks right'. Making this feasible motivated the shell sidebar.

bpo-43655: Make window managers on macOS and X Window recognize
IDLE dialog windows as dialogs.

bpo-42225: Document that IDLE can fail on Unix either from misconfigured IP
masquerade rules or failure displaying complex colored (non-ascii) characters.

bpo-43283: Document why printing to IDLE's Shell is often slower than
printing to a system terminal and that it can be made faster by
pre-formatting a single string before printing.

bpo-33987: Mostly finish using ttk widgets, mainly for editor,
settings, and searches. Some patches by Mark Roseman.

bpo-40511: Stop unnecessary "flashing" when typing opening and closing
parentheses inside the parentheses of a function call.

bpo-38439: Add a 256x256 pixel IDLE icon to the Windows .ico file. Created by
Andrew Clover. Remove the low-color gif variations from the .ico file.

bpo-41775: Make 'IDLE Shell' the shell title.

bpo-35764: Rewrite the Calltips doc section.
