New submission from Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu>:
I am opening this for a PR submitted without an issue. The PR (not yet
reviewed) makes the online IDLE doc link clickable.
Since a local copy of the online html page is also available on the Help menu,
that link is almost unneeded. But when using the online version, one can
navigate to other parts of the doc.
There is also a mailto: link. For me, on Windows,
wb.open("mailto:m...@mail.addr";) works and returns True (not documented). Is
this system dependent? I have previously seen mention that 'file:' links only
work on some systems. Maybe this has changed. I would like to know more
before addding this.
I am a bit worried about making spam easier and moderation of non-subscriber
posts (by me) harder. I would only want a link on a new Report Bugs page that
explained how to search bpo, with a link to its search page with component:IDLE
selected, and explanation of what to include in a bug report.
Before activating this, I would like to know what happens on a system where it
does not work. (The doc
