New submission from Terry J. Reedy: If possible, when saving an instance of an OutputWindow, the file type should default to .txt (or possibly even nothing) instead of .py. At present, OutputWindows are only used for Find in Files (grep) output, which is very much not Python code. The same should be true of any other OutputWindow uses, which I except there will be, making OutputWindow saves more common.
A patch should be tested and verified on Mac, Linux, and Windows. ---------- components: IDLE messages: 215419 nosy: terry.reedy priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Idle: saving an OutputWindow should default to .txt type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21140> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
