Category: IDLE Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Bruce Sherwood (bsherwood) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: IDLE on Mac Initial Comment: Copying code from some browsers into IDLE on the Mac can leave the file with only \r (13) at the ends of lines (Safari doesn't seem to have this problem). Then checksyntax() in ScriptBinding.py fails to convert these into \n (10), and compile() fails. The effect is that a program which Python is willing to run gets a syntax error in IDLE. I think the fix is in checksyntax() to add after source = re.sub(r"\r\n", "\n", source) the following statement, which converts unaccompanied \r's into \n's:: source = re.sub(r"\r", "\n", source) I've tried this and it works, but someone with a better overview of end-of-line issues in Python should think through whether this is the appropriate fix. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Bruce Sherwood (bsherwood) Date: 2005-08-19 00:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=34881 A footnote: Now I don't understand why the substitution searches for r"\r\n", since this would seem to be the raw string which represents slash, r, slash, n, not the two-character string "\r\n"....?? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1263656&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
