Tue Feb 16 22:34:17 1999 Guido van Rossum * ScriptBinding.py: Only pop up the stack viewer when requested in the Debug menu. Mon Feb 8 22:27:49 1999 Guido van Rossum * 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 * 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 * ZoomHeight.py: Use only the height to decide whether to zoom in or out. Thu Jan 28 22:24:30 1999 Guido van Rossum * 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 * EditorWindow.py, WindowList.py: Only deiconify when iconic. * TODO.txt: Misc Tue Jan 12 22:14:34 1999 Guido van Rossum * 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 * 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 * 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. ====================================================================== Python release 1.5.2b1, IDLE version 0.2 ====================================================================== Fri Jan 8 17:26:02 1999 Guido van Rossum * README.txt, NEWS.txt: What's new in this release. * Bindings.py, PyShell.py: 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 * FormatParagraph.py: Change paragraph width limit to 70 (like Emacs M-Q). * README.txt: 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 * FormatParagraph.py: Hm. There was a boundary condition error at the end of the file too. * SearchBinding.py: Hm. Add Unix binding for replace, too. * keydefs.py: Ran eventparse.py again. * 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 * 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 * 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 * 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 * Attic/turtle.py: Moved to Python 1.5.2/Lib Fri Nov 27 03:19:20 1998 Guido van Rossum * 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 * 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 * Attic/turtle.py: root is now a global called _root Sat Oct 24 16:38:38 1998 Guido van Rossum * 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 * SearchBinding.py: Speed up the search a bit -- don't drag a mark around... * PyShell.py: Change our special entries from to . 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 * 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 * 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 * 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 * 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 * 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 * 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: Initial checking of Tk-based Python IDE. Features: text editor with syntax coloring and undo; subclassed into interactive Python shell which adds history.
