New submission from Steve Dower: Currently (on Windows) we register a set of subcommands in order to display an expanding list of versions of IDLE when users right-click a .py file.
With issue27469, a proper shell extension was added, which means we can now use IContextMenu to implement the menu rather than fixed registry keys. This would allow us to detect all installed versions of IDLE and present them without having to register new keys (i.e. forwards and backwards compatibility). ---------- assignee: terry.reedy components: IDLE, Windows messages: 271123 nosy: paul.moore, steve.dower, terry.reedy, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: low severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Migrate IDLE context menu items to shell extension type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27603> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
