[issue44956] curses getch returns wrong value

[Robert T McQuaid]

New submission from Robert T McQuaid :

This applies to Python 3.8 under Debian-11 Bullseye.

Under curses getch should return the value of curses.KEY_B2
(350 decimal) when pressing the keypad 5.  Instead it
returns 574.

The simple program following the signature block
illustrates the problem.

import curses as cs
def report(stdscr):
print('press the keypad 5')
global result
result=stdscr.getch()
cs.initscr()
cs.wrapper(report)
print('KEY_B2 (decimal): '+str(cs.KEY_B2))
print('input decimal value: '+str(result))

The description of color_pair starts with

curses.color_pair(color_number)

It should be

[issue6212] piped input

[Robert T McQuaid]

New submission from Robert T McQuaid r...@fixcas.com:

#
#  Python 3.0.1 can read piped input when invoked with a
#  program name as the argument of the interpreter, but not
#  when invoked implicitly by the file extension.  On
#  Windows xp the first command below runs successfully, the
#  second ends with a diagnostic:  'NoneType' object has no
#  attribute 'isatty'
#
#
#  dir | e:\python30\python test17.py
#  dir | test17.py
#
#

import sys
if sys.stdin.isatty(): pass

[issue1210] imaplib does not run under Python 3

[Robert T McQuaid]

New submission from Robert T McQuaid:

imaplib does not run under Python 3.

The following two-line python program, named testimap.py,
works when run from a Windows XP system shell prompt
using Python 2.5.1, but fails with Python 3.0.  It
appears that the logic does not follow the distinction
between characters and bytes in Python 3.


import imaplib
mail=imaplib.IMAP4(mail.rtmq.infosathse.com)


e:\python25\python   testimap.py
e:\python30\python   testimap.py 2f:syserr


The last line produced the trace:


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File testimap.py, line 10, in module
mail=imaplib.IMAP4(mail.rtmq.infosathse.com)
  File e:\python30\lib\imaplib.py, line 184, in __init__
self.welcome = self._get_response()
  File e:\python30\lib\imaplib.py, line 962, in _get_response
self._append_untagged(typ, dat)
  File e:\python30\lib\imaplib.py, line 800, in _append_untagged

[issue1192] Python 3 documents crash Firefox

[Robert T McQuaid]

New submission from Robert T McQuaid:

I downloaded python-3.0a1.msi for Windows XP and after install converted
the documentation from chm format to html with the hh.exe utility in XP.
The resulting files crashed Firefox version 2.0 (it slowly chokes to
death in a dozen operations), but worked fine on Opera 9.21.
