IDLE
----
+- Issue #24820: IDLE now has an 'IDLE Dark' built-in text color theme.
+ It is more or less IDLE Classic inverted, with a cobalt blue background.
+ Strings, comments, keywords, ... are still green, red, orange, ... .
+ Selecting it displays the following warning and solution.
+ "IDLE Dark is new in October, 2015. Trying to run earlier versions
+ of IDLE with it selected will disable colorizing, or worse.
+ If you might ever run an earlier release of IDLE, then before
+ exiting this version, either switch to another theme or hit the
+ 'Save as New Custom Theme' button. The latter requires a new name,
+ such as 'Custom Dark', but the custom theme will work with any IDLE
+ release, and can be modified."
+
+- Issue #25224: README.txt is now an idlelib index for IDLE developers and
+ curious users. The previous user content is now in the IDLE doc and is
+ redundant. IDLE now means 'Integrated Development and Learning Environment'.
+
+- Issue #24820: Users can now set breakpoint colors in
+ Settings -> Custom Highlighting. Original patch by Mark Roseman.
+
- Issue #24972: Inactive selection background now matches active selection
background, as configured by user, on all systems. Found items are now
always highlighted on Windows. Initial patch by Mark Roseman.
