[issue7061] Improve 24.5. turtle doc
Gregor Lingl gregorli...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: What do you mean with similar approach? Keep in mind, that functions derived form turtle methods, call methods for the class variable _pen of class Turtle. A new Turtle-object is bound to _pen, if it is not already present, whenever one of these functions is called, via _getpen() So perhaps _getpen() can do for you what you need? (A similar approach is used for screen-oriented functions with turtle._screen.) I'm very sorry that, due to time restrictions, for the next two or three months I'm not able to participate in these discussions as intensely as I'd like to.

[issue10199] Move Demo/turtle under Lib/
Gregor Lingl gregorli...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: Imho it is very important to clarify the name convention for demoscripts to be added to the demo before committing (or at least before the apperance of beta1). It decides about adding scripts to the Examples Menu of the viewer. We all know, that things once they have found their way into Lib cannot be changed easily afterwards. Guidos argument on backwards compatibility applies. So now is the only point in time to decide about this. Should we - stick with the tdemo_ prefix or - change to another pre- or postfix (like eg. bytedesign_demo) - or should we allow for arbitrary *.py filenames with some exception (e.g. filenames that contain an underscore) to mark files that are not meant as demos for the viewer? Please note that there are other constraints also for demo_files anyway, like the size of the graphics window and the presence of a main()-function to be called by the viewer. I'd like this to be decided actively. What do you think?

[issue10199] Move Demo/turtle under Lib/
Gregor Lingl gregorli...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: First of all: I'd not like to see turtle.py converted into a package. I think with the turtle module things should be as simple as possible and I don't see any need to put approx. 100kB of code into an __init__.py and be it only because there are hundreds of them and on cannot see from the name what's in there. I do not expect the avarage turtle user to look at the code, but certainly some teachers and instructors do even if they are not python specialists accustomed to the use of packages. As far as I understood from the discussion the MAIN POINT is to make the turtleDemo accessible as easyly as possible. So at first this needs a decision to put the demo code into the Windows-Distribution. The next question is where to put it. In my opinion there are two possibilities. 1) The one mentioned by Alexander in msg119612: a turtledemo directory in Lib. 2) To put a turtledemo directory into the Tools directory (in some sense the demoViewer is sort of a tool, isn't it.) I quickly prepared a 'prototypical' collection with a modified viewer, which accounts for some of the arguments which came up in the current discussion. It contains a turtledemo package. Please download it and have a look. Each demo can be run by doubleclicking, as a standalone script, as well as from the turtledemo.viewer If from the above options 1) were chosen or the package is somewhere else in the search path, on can - at the interactive prompt - do things like: from turtledemo import bytedesign bytedesign.main() and also: from turtledemo import viewer viewer.run() Morover one can load the examples into Idle and start them via the run-command. So one has a look at the code and moreover the possibility to make changes and try out, what happens. I have renamed the sample scripts, omitting the tdemo_ - prefix, as this looks nicer (at least for me). The previous version turtleDemo recognized scripts with this suffix as belonging to the demo-suite and added it to the examples menu. This was necessary because of a script, which cannot be demonstrated in the demo_viewer (two canvases). I changed this in my proposition in the following way: scripts that are in the demodirectory and should not appear in the DemoViewer's example-Menu, should end with _.py or some other extension. To make the demo_viewer importable creates a special problem: the demos are imported by the demoViewer via the __import__ function, so everyone can add his own demos to the demo-directory and they will show up in the viewer. The original version (and even this one) can do this also for demos in subdirectories when started directly. (I've included as an example the geometry directory). This does't work yet for importing the viewer, I only provided a very clumsy quick and dirty solution and I hope that someone has a better, more bright idea to do this more elegantly and correctly. Now for something completely different: how to make it easily accessible. 1) Put remarks (and links) into the documentation, near the head of the turtle module's docs. (Referring to 24.5.7) 2) Put a hint into the commentary/docstring of the file turtle.py itself. 3) I do not consider it a good idea to put the viewer.py into the if __name__ == __main__ - part of turtle.py thus replacing the current demo. I think this part should demonstrate the possibilities of the module without recurring to extra use of Tkinter (as the demo viewer does). (I must also confess, that the quality of the code of the viewer, which I programmed back in 2006, does not reach the standards I tried to achieve for turtle.py) 4) BUT I'd find it useful to change this final demo code of turtle.py, so it - in the end - displays a message where to find more demos (i. e. turtledemo) or even to put there a question like (Do you want to see more demos?) and two turtle-generated buttons: YES and NO. If one chooses Yes, the turtledemo.viewer would pop up in a separate process. Please consider this to be a proposal or a contribution. I'm very interested in discussing it further and bringing it to a quick and easy solution for Python 3.2. Unfortunately I'm currently involved in a project (also python-related) with very severe time constraints for the next four to five month. So ideas for enhancing the demoviewer and probably turtle.py have to wait until then and possibly will be an issue for Python 3.3 Best regards, Gregor -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19380/turtledemo32.zip ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10199 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue8616] Changes to content of Demo/turtle
Gregor Lingl gregorli...@users.sourceforge.net added the comment: Yes, tdemo_raund_dance.py and tdemo_scribble.py definitely do not work with turtle.py from Python 2.7 :-( I submitted them expecting, that my backport of turtle.py from Python 3.1 to Python 2.7 would be accepted. But, alas, I was too late :-((( So it's definitely ok not to add it to the turtle-demo-collection. The case of tdemo_nim.py is a mystery to me. To be sure to use the incriminated version I downloaded it from here (bug-tracker) and tried it out several times. The malfunction you mentioned never did occur. Moreover I've checked the code. Ther are only two lines, 62 (initialization with None) and 72, containing assignments to the NimModel.winner attribute which decides about the winner's announcement. Cannot imagine why this shouldn't work correctly? In fact the very same script is contained in Demo/turtle of Python 3.1.2 (in fact since 3.1) and up to now I never got any feedback about any malfunction whatever. So please could you check it once again and give some information in oder to be able to reproduce the effect mentioned? I'm definitely very interested in *know*ing if the script is faulty or not. However, committing this demo script or not can safely be regarded as a very unimportant issue.

[issue6339] Some functional errors in turtle.py documentation (missing links)
New submission from Gregor Lingl gregorli...@users.sourceforge.net: In the Python3.1rc2 documentation for turtle.py there are the following functional errors: In the overview section the (newly added) entries for the functions/methods shearfactor get_shapepoly onkeypress numinput do not have links to the corresponding text sections. These exist but also have errors, sometimes the leading 'turtle.' is missing, sometimes the parameter self erroneously appears in the text. I'm not very educated in restructured Text Syntax respectively the documentatin system. Nevertheless I inspected the source and I assume the following causes for this: In the first lines of the sections for shearfactor and numinput there are superfluous self, which should be deleted. In the sections for get_shapepoly, onkeypress and numinput there are perturbing colons at the end of the first lines, which perhaps should be deleted. As I'm not sure if this suggestions are right and/or comlete and I do not have any means to test them, I cannot submit a patch.

[issue5923] turtle.py update: 1.0 -- 1.1
New submission from Gregor Lingl gregorli...@users.sourceforge.net: I propose to update turtle.py with this new version 1.1 of the turtle module. Summary of changes: 1. a few bugfixes, with 1 - 5 lines of code changed for each; these concern bugs that prevented turtle to run correctly 2. I've added four methods to the class TurtleScreeenBase: _onkeypress(fun, key) (supplementing _onkeyrelease) mainloop() (which is now a Screen-method and a function) textinput(title, prompt) numinput(title, prompt, default, minval, maxval) the latter two remedy the complete lack of input methods _onkey, an internal method name is changed to _onkeyrelease 3. I've added one method to the class TurtleScreen: onkeypress(fun, key=None)implemented in analogy to the already present onkey() which got onkeyrelease as an alias. 4. I've changed several portions of the code that affect the representation of the turtleshape thus making it more compact (by removing some duplicated code) and more powerful, i. e. by adding the possibility to apply shearings to turtleshapes (in addition to the already present scaling and rotating transformations). Thus now the full range of (non singular) linear transformations is available. New methods in class RawTurtle: shearfactor(shear=None)set or get the shearfactor shapetransform(t11, t12, t21, t22) set or get the shape transform directly get_shapepoly() return the polygon of the current shape I've enhanced the functionality of tiltangle(angle=None) to contain also that of settiltangle and I propose to declare settiltangle as deprecated. 5. I've removed a lot of codelines that were commented out during the process of transferring the module from 2.6 to 3.0 6. I've implemented the bugfix for http://bugs.python.org/issue4117 according do my proposition there and I strongly recommend this change again, as the bug described is very annoying, the fix is easy and no one proposed a better solution.

So perhaps the issue can be resolved successfully. May I submit here one of the two example scripts I'd like to add to the demos: tdemo_round_dance.py . Have a look at it and run it. Just for fun - in this strained situation - I hope you enjoy it. I'll prepare the patch for the docs and I'll submit it as soon as possible, not later than tomorrow. Of course the print(_ver) statement should be commented out. Regards, Gregor --- So perhaps there is someone else who could do it. I'd like to state decisively: Version 1.1 contains significant amendments. I tested it thoroughly It would be a big advantage if others could test it also during the 4 weeks of beta testing. So I'd like to ask: Would it be practicable to put it into 3.1b with the caveat to revert this adoption if it turns out to have unrecoverable flaws? I'd like to remind you that Martin even did significant changes to version 1.0 only a few days before the final release of Python2.6. I know (and regret) that I submitted these changes rather late, but it was four days ago that I asked Martin and also Raymond for advice on how to proceed with the submission but regrettably with no response. Unfortunately I'm a full time teacher and have to do a lot of final exams these days. So I have only limited resources to work on turtle development. Nevertheless I'm anxious to only deliver valuable contributions. I hope there is a way to accept these for now.

[issue4117] missing update() in _Screen.setup() of Lib/turtle.py
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: I cannot call the Canvas method _update_idletasks() from within _Screen.setup() becaus this would contradict to the architecture of the module which isolates all direct references to Tkinter to TurtleScreenBase. (The idea behind this is to make the module easily portable, by porting only this class). So if one followed your proposition one had to change TurtleScreenBase which would result in a different (additional) patch. For now I'd like to stick with the one proposed here - I worked a lot with it, it works and I didn't experience unwanted side effects. My question: I suppose to change the call self.cv.update() to self.cv.update_idletasks() in TurtleScreenBase._update wouldn't work properly so one had to add a new method to TurtleScreenBase - something like TurtleScreenBase._update_idletasks. Originally I had the intention to keep this interface as small as possible and use only things that are really needed. Did you experience any problems or undesired behaviour because of using unly cv.update? If so, please report it. Perhaps you could also provide an example.

[issue4117] missing update() in _Screen.setup() of Lib/turtle.py
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: I find that desire misguided; this is (IMO) a case of false abstraction. Is there any kind of proof that this design actually works, i.e. can be ported to a different GUI library (like, say, PythonWin? or AWT, when run in Jython?) Yes there is. I have a (nearly complete) port to Pygame. (The only exception is the ondrag method, which I will incorporate if I have time for it.) It runs all of the turtle graphics example scripts (except colormixer which uses ondrag) without problems. Unless such proof can be provided (and then integrated into the code), I recommend to give up that objective, and start merging the base class code into the subclasses where reasonable. Sorry, but I definitely shall not follow your recommendation. I have presented the architecture of the turtle module at Europython 2006 in a talk which was visited also by Guido v. Rossum and later in Leipzig at a workshop where you yourself, Martin, was present. On both of these occasions I showed working prototypes of this port (along with another one to VPython) and nobody had any objections nor were there any objections by other useres who have used it up to now against this design. You can find this also in the Tagungsband to the Leipzig Python workshop together with some screenshots. I'm very confident that this is a good design and I know (form the experience mentioned above) that it works. So instead I'll proceed with porting it to Jython and I for my part would consider it as an advantage to have the same turtle module in both of these flavours of Python. Two more remarks on this discussion, a specific one and a general one. 1. The bug I submitted a patch for is in the method setup() and in the __init__ method of _Screen, both of which usually will be called only once in a program.So in *this* case it cannot cause any performance problems. The bug has annoying consequences and I found a simple remedy, which I consider appropriate for a bug-fix-release like 2.6.1. I don't see any reason why to keep a known bug like this one in the code. Acceptance of the patch will certainly not affect any more fundamental amendments to follow (possibly). Moreover up to now I didn't hear of a single complaint about the performance of the turtle module. I think this is (i) because for beginning programmers this is no issue and (ii) there are means (to call tracer() and also to call update() directly) to control performance to a considerable extent. Shortly, my opinion is that there are *good reasons* why the implementation is done like this, seen from the educator's point of view. 2. Is it really fruitful to discuss general design issues along with (comparatively) small problems like this one - in the sense of alternative ways to fix that problem? Implementations of redesigns like the one you recommended wouldn't be accepted anyway for bug fix releases or releases in rc phase. I'm open to fundamental criticism also, but I think that should be led in Python-Dev or possibly comp.lang.python. And working out an amended concept would take some time and also it's implementation and it's testing. Moreover, to find co-workers to work on this would be an advantage.

[issue4117] missing update() in _Screen.setup() of Lib/turtle.py
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: Most definitely. The module went into Python without any review whatsoever. Nobody (but you) has ever looked at the code in detail. That's not True! Brad Miller, for example, who also had submitted patches to the pythontracker, coauthor of Python Programming in Context, has used a predecessor of turtle.py as a main tool (swiss army knife, as he says) in his book. He has contributed a few patches (via private communication, before the module went into the Python trunk), one of them directly concerning the update method. He had also suggested some of the features, which I have added towards the end of the development. You might argue that with due process, review should have taken place before the code was integrated. You might be right, but then the new turtle module wouldn't have been part of Python 2.6. Rigth, more or less. At least I had expected, that someone reads the doc-strings of the approx. 15 classes in the module. The one of TurtleScreenBase reads like this: Provide the basic graphics functionality. Interface between Tkinter and turtle.py. To port turtle.py to some different graphics toolkit a corresponding TurtleScreenBase class has to be implemented.

[issue4116] name conflict in ScrolledCanvas.__init__() in Lib/turtle.py
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: I'd like to see this patch accepted and done for Python 2.6.1 and (at the same time) python 3.0 before the last rc is released. So could you dedicate a few minutes to reviewing it. To demonstrate the nature of this issue (and also the nuisance it could produce) I've constructed a minimal example to show the consequences of the bug: import turtle s = turtle.Screen() def changecolor(): s.bgcolor(1.0, 0.5) # needs 3 floats as arguments s.ontimer(changecolor, 1000) turtle.mainloop() This should create an error message like this: TurtleGraphicsError: bad color arguments: (100, 100) Instead it results in: Traceback (most recent call last): File C:\_\provoke_error.py, line 11, in module turtle.mainloop() File C:\Python26\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py, line 325, in mainloop _default_root.tk.mainloop(n) File C:\Python26\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py, line 1414, in __call__ self.widget._report_exception() File C:\Python26\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py, line 1175, in _report_exception root = self._root() AttributeError: _Root instance has no __call__ method because the _root() method defined in line 1105 of Tkinter.py is overwritten by the _root attribute of ScrolledCanvas (lines 362 and 382). So in these (hopefully rare) cases where an error message is directly provoked from the Tkinter module, this will fail letting the user without clue about what happened. With the proposed patch applied, the above script produces the correct error message.

Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: Agreeing to this patch, I'd just like to mention, that nevertheless this change is not very pleasing for me. Not feeling that singleton with inheritance is a 'meaningless' but rather a 'very special' concept,the meaning of which could be explained, I've used this concept in the last chapter of my book Python for Kids designing sort of a GameScreen class derived from Screen(). Hmmm. So sthis seems to remain sort of a unique selling point of xturtle for now. And in the 4th edition I can certainly adapt this chapter.

[issue3956] turtle.py - bug in Screen.__init__()
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: I agree to Martin's patch for 2.6, because it seems to provide a more clean solution. And, as he states, there will be time and opportunity to discuss it more thoroughly later to possibly find another approach. As I remarked before I know that singleton+inheritance is a controversial subject. However the gang of four state in their book that one should use the singleton design pattern if one needs exactly one instance af a class and this should be extensible by subclassing ... (And there are reasons why I'd like to have Screen() subclassable.) Anyway, I think there are two more things to do: 1) Add a docstring to the Screen() function 2) Insert (at least) one sentence in the docs, 9.th paragraph of the Introduction. Something like: ... so there can exist only one instance of Screen at a time. *Notice that consequently Screen cannot be sublassed.* It should be used when turtle is used as a standalone tool for doing graphics. ... Perhaps one should also note, that the singleton object is returned by a function. I've applied the proposed patch (file11645) to a working copy and I've tested it in interactive mode as well as with turtleDemo and all the supplied demoscripts and found it to work well.

[issue3956] turtle.py - bug in Screen.__init__()
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: First of all I'd like to point you at a posting which I posted to Python-dev on August 18th, where I addressed this issue in full detail. http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-August/081846.html I hoped to provoke a clarifying discussion but I have to complain, that I didn't succeed with this probably because many people were on vacation at this time. The only substantial reply I got was by Vern Ceder, a turtle graphics veteran who contributed a lot to the old turtle module. He wrote: Gregor, I don't feel authoritative on the correctness/appropriateness of the implementation, but I do agree completely that behavior b, or what you have in the 3.0 version, is vastly preferable. Cheers, Vern The design decision to use a singleton is of interest only for interactive use. (A well designed Script uses at most one Screen() call at the beginning. So that is no issue.) I'll demonstrate here in a short interactive session (which you can reproduce using IDLE with the -n switch as usual), why the solution Martin proposes doesn't meet the requirements I tried to accomplish with my code. This session 'simulates' a student curiously playing around and experimenting with *the* Screen(): from turtle import Screen, Turtle class YellowScreen(Screen): def __init__(self): Screen.__init__(self) self.bgcolor(yellow) s = YellowScreen() t = Turtle() for i in range(10): t.fd(50) t.lt(36) s1 = Screen() s1.bgcolor(pink) s = YellowScreen() s1.bgcolor() 'yellow' s1.turtles() [turtle.Turtle object at 0x01490450] class TextScreen(Screen): def __init__(self): Screen.__init__(self) self. writer = Turtle(visible=False) self.writer.pu() def writeAt(self, x, y, txt): self.writer.goto(x,y) self.writer.write(txt) s = TextScreen() s.writeAt(0, -200, Read me ...) s.turtles() [turtle.Turtle object at 0x01490450, turtle.Turtle object at 0x014902B0] s.writer turtle.Turtle object at 0x014902B0 class RedScreen(Screen): def __init__(self): Screen .__init__(self) self.bgcolor(1, 0.5, 0.5) u = RedScreen() u.writeAt(0,200, Read me too)# should fail! Traceback (most recent call last): File pyshell#21, line 1, in module u.writeAt(0,200, Read me too) AttributeError: 'RedScreen' object has no attribute 'writeAt' u = TextScreen() u.writeAt(0,200, Read me too) u.turtles() # at this point for the first time occurs an # unfavorable consequence of what Martin called a # 'design bug', namely a turtle in the turtles() list # which is not used any more. [turtle.Turtle object at 0x01490450, turtle.Turtle object at 0x014902B0, turtle.Turtle object at 0x014C2D10] u.writer turtle.Turtle object at 0x014C2D10 s.writer turtle.Turtle object at 0x014C2D10 # We want a fresh screen ... s.clear() s.turtles() [] So there occurres this and possibly some more somewhat weird elements, presumably a result of using the Singleton pattern which is especially controversial in combination with inheritance. Nevertheless I decisively propose to accept this behaviour in order to be able do things like the ones demonstrated above. Morover I also consider it to be a benefit to use spezialized and/or reusable screens derived from the Screen() class in scripts, what would not be possible with a Screen()-function returning *the* single _Screen() object. (All this meant in the context of teaching and learning OOP). Now for the additional questions of Martin: Yes, the second if statement is superfluous. It looks like to be a remain from Pen.__init__ from the old turtle module, where - in contrast - it was not superfluous. My fault. It could be removed, but it doesn't do harm. (The overwhelming part of the module is *re*written but it still contains (in this case regrettably) quite some traces of the old module.) And also the assignement of self to Turtle._screen in the last line could be put into the if-statement-body. But somehow I seem to have felt that a conditionally empty body of __init__() looks dangerous - or at least not nice. More seriously taken, the Borg idiom ensures the creation of new instances (with different id), sharing state and behaviour and I somehow felt it to be better to have the last created instance in Turtle._screen (whereas in fact this is of no importance). My preliminary conclusion: as I'm not a professional programmer but a teacher I can't judge the importance of observing the design principle mentioned by Martin. (I know the principle, I normally observe it and consider it's non observation in the Screen class to be well founded) But if you think, that there is no way around and it has to be observed strictly, one had to leave

[issue3956] turtle.py - bug in Screen.__init__()
New submission from Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED]: There is a bug in Screen.__init__() (The Screen class uses the Borg idiom to simulate a Singleton). This bug is demonstrated best interactively from IDLE (using the -n switch) like this: from turtle import Screen, Turtle t = Turtle() t.fd(100) # idea: let's have a yellow background, so we need # *the* screen s = Screen() # the drawing vanishes s.turtles() [] This is undesired behaviour. Instead the Screen() call should leave the drawings an the turtles untouched and return the already existing Screen. So the call of turtles() would result in something like: s.turtles() [turtle.Turtle object at 0x01490330] This is accomplished by the patch described in the attached file turtle.diff Of course sequences of commands like those shown in the interactive session above do not occur in well designed scripts, but they may well occur during sessions of students in interactive classroom use. Two more important notes: (1) This patch is already done in turtle.py for Python 3.0. So in 2.6 it would ensure that Turtles and the Screen show identical behaviour in both versions. (2) This patch makes necessary one other patch in turtleDemo.py - in the Demo directory - which is shown in the attached turtleDemo.diff turtleDemo.py is not a normal turtle application but a GUI - utility designed to run a series of 'normal' turtle - apps conforming to some simple rules (These apps in most cases use a Screen()). So when switching from one to another demo script within turtleDemo one wants to reinitialize the Canvas - what is just the contrary of what one wants normally as explained above. This is accomplished by this patch of turtleDemo.py.

[issue3940] turtle.py - minor bugfixes
New submission from Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Thorough testing revealesd the following bugs in turtle.py (Python 2.6): 1) Around lines 359 and 379: There's a name conflict with a methodname of the parentclass Frame: _root. The bugfix consists in renaming this attribute, which occurs only twice 2) Around line 732: Turtles with image-shapes do not recognize user coordinates. This is fixed in TurtleScreenBase method _drawimage by introducing the corresponding scaling factors 3) Around line 3570: Calling the __init__ - Method of the Screen-class (which uses the Borg idiom) destroys graphics and Turtles on the Screen. This is an undesired behaviour. The fix brings the behaviour of Screen in accordance with the Python 3.0 version. 4) Around line 3612: Screen.setup() needs a final update() call in order to ensure, that immediately following calls of window_width() or window_height() return correct values. Moreover there is a correction of the version number and date Bugfixes are attached in turtle.py.diff Regards, Gregor -- components: Library (Lib) files: turtle.py.diff keywords: patch messages: 73607 nosy: gregorlingl severity: normal status: open title: turtle.py - minor bugfixes type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file11565/turtle.py.diff ___ Python tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue3940 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue3941] Help in IDLE doesn't work correctly
New submission from Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED]: From IDLE either pressing F1 or choosing the menu Help-Python Docs should open a Help-Window with the docs of the current version. (This works well for instance in Python 2.5.2) The docs file normally resides on the local computer in the Doc directory (at least under Windows) With 2.6rc2 under Windows pressing F1 only opens a Browser with the url http://www.python.org/doc/current/ which leads to the 2.5.2 documentation. It should be linked to the python26.chm file in the Doc directory Regards, Gregor -- components: IDLE messages: 73609 nosy: gregorlingl severity: normal status: open title: Help in IDLE doesn't work correctly type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 ___ Python tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue3941 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue3064] new turtle module for Python 3.0
New submission from Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED]: turtle3.zip contains the port of the new turtle module (including demo viewer and demo scripts) to Python 3.0 . One demo script has been added (tdemo_forest.py) It has been tested under Windows/MacOsX/Linux without showing up any problems. I've done a few small changes to the API - as proposed in issue 1513695 - which are described in the docfile.

[issue1513695] new turtle module
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: I'd like to propose a few modifications of turtle.py for the transition from Python 2.6 to Python 3.0, which would result in a cleaner interface but also in some - i think marginal - incompatibiliy: 1) drop from math import * 2) delete the methods Turtle.window_width() and Turtle.indow_height() (They are mereley transferred from Screen to Turtle and are imho generic Screen.methods. So they will still be present as Screen methods and as functions. In fact this proposition has a didactic background - on should teach to differentiate between Screen- and Turtle-methods as belonging to two completely different types of objects, and the only realistic reply to the student's question Why do Turtle objects have a window_width() method would be: for historical reasons! When, if not now, is time to make changes like this?) 3) The same is valid for Turtle.tracer() as tracer controls in fact Screen-updates and not Turtle updates. (The only difference is, that Turtle.tracer cannot be deleted, because it's (currently) used in turtle.circle(), so I'd propose to rename it to Turtle._tracer() and so delete it from the public interface. Of course tracer() will also remain present als Screen-method and as function. Pros and cons? I have prepared a file with these changes which could be used for porting it to Python3.0. So if everybody agrees, I could upload it.

[issue1513695] new turtle module
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: In my last posting i forgot a fourth proposition. Currently one has the Turtle.methods fill(), begin_fill() and end_fill() As is stated in the old turtle docs the specification of fill is rather complex. begin_fill() and end_fill(), are identical to fill(True) and fill(False) (or fill(1) and fill(0)). That means, that begin_fill() sometimes may do somthing unexpected, namely complete som filling underway. In the new turtle module fill() without arguments returns the filling state, i. e. True/False respectively. I'd prefer the following: begin_fill() should only start a new filling process and cancel some underway, if necessary (that means: a filling without end_fill will not take place) end_fill() should only complete the current filling process a new method filling() should be used to ask if same filling is currently taking place and fill() could be dropped. (deprecated in 2.6) I think Vern Ceders intention with introducing begin_fill and end_fill was to have a clear and easily understandable meaning, which is only partially accomplished with the current solution. What is your opinion?

[issue1513695] new turtle module
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: Hi, here is my contribution. The zip-file contains - the module turtle.py - a doc-file turtle-docs.txt - a subdirectory with a series of sample scripts and a demoviewer. (one of the demoscripts is a standalone script) Clearly the docs have to be transformed to reST. I would do it or participate but that certainly would only be ready within 2 or 3 weeks. The end of the school year is near and I have a huge amount of work in my school until approx. 20th of June. After this I have plenty of time also for correcting etc. Of course I'll also do bugfixes etc. Anyway I'm interested in feedback of any sort. I worked hard to do my best and I hope the result will be appreciated.

[issue1513695] new turtle module
Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: This version runs under Python 2.5 and should run under python 2.6 It still needs some amendments and polishing concerning the code as well as the docstrings. Here it can serve as a starting point for a discussion about necessary and/or desirable modifications. A version for Python-3000 is under construction For the new features please consult xturtle-docs. Remarks on Martin's 10 points (msg 50550): 1) Should be discussed. I think a few demos would be fine, the whole package perhaps would be to large. (I'll prepare a selection and upload it in due time) 2) decision about replacement or supllement has still to be done. This update will be easy ;-) 3) Who is that somebody? 4) Still has to be done 5) I for my part don't like Point, because this name refers more to the geometrical than to the computational aspects of the object. What about _Vec2 or _Vec2D? In this version an alias without the leading underscore can be created via an entry in the xturtle.cfg file. 6) camelCase methodnames are changed to lowercase (at least the public ones) 7) Docstrings has still to be checked 8) n argument of clear has been dropped. 9) checkargs has been dropped (for now). It's purpose was intended to be to check the types of the arguments and construct appropriate error messages useful for programming beginners. I deferred it until I eventually be able to come up with some intelligent solution using decorators ;-) Would be fine but is not urgent. 10) Maybe there are still a few. These will be changed. -- nosy: +glingl versions: +Python 2.6 -Python 2.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file9693/xturtle.py _ Tracker [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bugs.python.org/issue1513695 _ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Gregor Lingl [EMAIL PROTECTED] added the comment: If you put (this example of) xturtle.cfg either into the directory where xturtle.py resides or into the current working directory, the configuration will be loaded. In this case window size and turtle are configured to look like in module turtle. If no config-file is found a standard configuration is used. (This standard configuration currently uses a scrolled canvas but could of course be changed to look like that furnished by the above cfg-file.)
