(For now, set PyShell.use_subprocess to False to run + in this mode.) + +- Restore the ability to run without the subprocess. This can be important for + some platforms or configurations. (Running without the subprocess allows the + debugger to trace through parts of IDLE itself, which may or may not be + desirable, depending on your point of view. In addition, the traditional + reload/import tricks must be use if user source code is changed.) + - Improve the error message a user gets when saving a file with non-ASCII characters and no source encoding is specified. Done by adding a dialog 'EncodingMessage', which contains the line to add in a fixed-font entry |
