Roger Serwy <roger.se...@gmail.com> added the comment: Attached is an initial diff for creating a separate pager window by using a textView widget. The recently applied patch in issue964437 allows this window to be non-modal, which can be useful for interactive development.
The diff contains code to allow the pager to work with and without a subprocess. The "pager" and "use_help_window" in PyShell.py provide the core functionality. The "use_help_window" presently is a placeholder for implementing Ezio's suggestion in msg160114. Does anyone know why "import pydoc" is wrapped in a try/except block? I omitted that in "pager". ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file25491/help_pager.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13659> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
