New submission from Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu>: As reported by R.S.Kachanovsky on the IDLE-sig list, and comfirmed by me with 3.2.2 on Win 7, entering a replace term ending with '\', like 'test\', in the find/replace dialog box causes IDLE to crash, as in do nothing for a couple of seconds and then close all windows.
A find term in either a find or find/replace box with a \ anywhere causes a beep. This means that one cannot search for test containing such, but that is better than crashing (which has the same effect). ---------- components: IDLE messages: 144562 nosy: terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: IDLE: replace ending with '\' causes crash type: crash versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13052> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
