| | | | | (cherry picked from commit d6c08db8538d046d783db44fe4e70a60af0fb02e) Co-authored-by: Tal Einat <taleinat+github@gmail.com>
* [3.7] bpo-38862: IDLE Strip Trailing Whitespace fixes end newlines ↵Terry Jan Reedy2019-11-271-12/+13
| | | | | | | | (GH-17366) (#17379) Extra newlines are removed at the end of non-shell files. If the file only has newlines after stripping other trailing whitespace, all are removed, as is done by patchcheck.py. (cherry picked from commit 6bf644ec82f14cceae68278dc35bafb00875efae) Co-authored-by: Terry Jan Reedy <tjreedy@udel.edu>
* bpo-38022: IDLE: upgrade help.html to sphinx 2.x HTML5 output (GH-15664)Miss Islington (bot)2019-09-031-165/+221
| | | | | | | | The HTML5 output from Sphinx 2.x adds '<p>' tags within list elements. Using a new prevtag attribute, ignore these instead of emitting unwanted '\n\n'. Also stop looking for 'first' classes on tags (no longer present) and fix the bug of double-spacing instead of single spacing after <pre> blocks. (cherry picked from commit 580bdb0ece681537eadb360f0c796123ead7a559) Co-authored-by: Tal Einat <taleinat+github@gmail.com>

* bpo-26806: add 30 to the recursion limit in IDLE's shell (GH-13944)Miss Islington (bot)2019-07-061-135/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | This is done to compensate for the extra stack frames added by IDLE itself, which cause problems when setting the recursion limit to low values. This wraps sys.setrecursionlimit() and sys.getrecursionlimit() as invisibly as possible.

The customization dialog is accessed by a new entry on the Run menu. (cherry picked from commit 201bc2d18b60adb05810d2a6ab396047bc527088) Co-authored-by: Cheryl Sabella <cheryl.sabella@gmail.com>

* Rebase the 3.x version of idlelib/help.html on the 3.5 version ofTerry Jan Reedy2016-03-011-73/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Doc/build/html/library/idle.html, which is built from Doc/library/idle.rst. Help.html is an rstrip()ed copy of idle.html that can be pushed. The displayed content is unchanged because a) the version number is not displayed, being inherent in the version displaying the file and b) the tt tag was ignored by the custom parser in idlelib/help.py. The wrapped <span class="pre"> tags remain as they were. This will be merged in 3.6 (without conflict) because the 3.6 help.html is a copy of the 3.5 file (which was a copy of the 3.4 file). The two files will remain the same until either a) there is a content change that only applies to one of them or b) 3.5 maintenance ends and the 3.6 file is itself rebased.
