Roger Serwy added the comment: Todd, the LineNumbers.py extension from the IdleX project contains work-arounds for interacting cleanly with the Code Context extension. It also has a hack for dealing with the shortcomings of the Percolator/Delegator ordering.
There are other shortcomings in the extension that I could not address from IDLE's extension loading architecture. Notably, IDLE does not have a method to broadcast that a font was changed, so the extension polls every second to see what the font is. The Code Context extension also does this. This is clearly an inefficient way to handle identifying a configuration change. I released IdleX with the University of Illinois. Presently, the code is under the NCSA license agreement and assigned to the Board of Trustees. If the PSF would allow inclusion as-is, then I'm all for it. Otherwise I will need to ask UIUC about how to re-license the code. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17535> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
