Hi Everyone,
There are 107 open issues against IDLE presently in the bug tracker.
Here is a list of 31 issues that deal with actual bugs in IDLE. These
are not enhancements, new features, user-interface annoyances, or
anything requiring a change to how the user interacts with IDLE (with
the arguable exceptions of 14105 and 14146). Let's fix these issues
while we wait on PEP434.
We still need a unit test framework for IDLE as listed in 15392. Full
unit testing would require a significant refactoring of parts of IDLE. I
am willing to accept extensive manual testing for an issue as sufficient
reason to apply a patch, but if a very simple test can be written then
let's write it with the hope of later incorporating it into a framework.
Here are some simple problems to fix:
5492 Error on leaving IDLE with quit() or exit() under Linux
6649 idlelib/rpc.py missing exit status on exithook
