At least a couple of people have had problems using SaveAs from IDLE
when running on macOS Catalina. But Ned Deily cannot reproduce the
issue. I cannot because I have refused the buggy 'upgrade'. We could
use more data. What do other Catalina Python users experience?
If not an IDLE user, the experiment is easy.
In terminal:
$ python3 -m idlelib
In IDLE:
File => New
File => SaveAs
In the macOS saveas dialog:
Enter a minimal name that does not match an existing .py name in
Documents. Hit [Save] button. Does the dialog save and close, or does
it clear the Document content list and freeze?
The three Apple apps I looked at, Safari, Maps, and Keynote do not
display folder contents. This might be the problem. What do other Mac
apps do?
