Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Quick summary and opinions so far: * Jump to top: general IDLE bug, fixed. * Repeated quit message: never seen by me, likely IDLE bug. I need to check code where message emitted. * Arrow keys emit ? replacement char: never seen by me, likely tcl bug. IDLE

Tal Einat added the comment: Ned: - I could also try to make a 3.8.0 and/or 3.7.5 with 8.6.10rc1 installer available informally. That would be very helpful! If you do so I'd be happy to test on Windows, macOS. I'm also able to test on Ubuntu if that would help. I suggest we somehow collect

Ned Deily added the comment: Thanks, Kevin. I do see that 8.6.10rc1 is now available. Yay! Tal: > How can we work with the Tk developers to ensure it works with Python across > platforms? We have the first 3.9.0 alpha scheduled in about 10 days. I will try to build 8.6.10rc1 (or later

Tal Einat added the comment: Thanks for the report on the freezes, Raymond! My mac was recently fixed and I've upgraded to the latest OS version, so I'll take a look at this as well. Thanks for the update on the Tk side, Kevin. It's very unfortunate that we've found 3.6.9 unusable with

Kevin Walzer added the comment: On macOS, Tk 8.6.8 is considered ancient, even obsolete, on 10.14 or later. Tk has required huge re-work to accommodate changes in the Mac's drawing API's on 10.14, mostly done by Marc Culler; these issues are not observable with the current tip of 8.6

[issue38440] Possible new issues with IDLE

Ned Deily added the comment: That's quite a stack trace, bouncing back and forth between Python and Tk and macOS. I don't really have any experience with the flow of control there with call outs to file save dialogs. CCing Kevin Walzer on the off chance that this might be familiar and

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: A new intermittent problem has arisen on macOS since I updated to Catalina. It occurs on both 10.15.0 and 10.15.1. I'm using the 3.8.0 mac 64-bit install taken directly from python.org. In a long-running session of IDLE, the process freezes-up during

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Given this, I reproduced the issue on Windows for both 3.7 and 3.8. The bug is trying to compile the Shell window, after it has been saved, or an Output window, with a prompt to save, for any of F5, Shift-F5, and Alt-X. There is no existing issue I know

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: Reproducer for the jump-to-top bug: * Start an IDLE interactive shell session * Run: File Save As tmp.py * Press F5 to run the shell session (this is an error) Effects: * A message box with "Invalid Syntax" appears * The cursor jumps to the top row and

Raymond Hettinger added the comment: I've twice observed another bit of flakey behavior. When editing a line in a shell session, the cursor arrow keys start emitting mac's ? special symbol character. I'll look to see if I can find a reproducer for this as well. --

Ned Deily added the comment: (Just FYI: the version of Tcl/Tk, 8.6.8, we are shipping with the python.org installers for macOS is unchanged since 3.7.2 a year ago, 2.7.16 (in March), and has not changed during the 3.8.0 pre-release cycle. We did try to update to 8.6.9 for 3.7.2rc1 but
