Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Notepad++ always asks, even when the edit buffer is not dirty. Actual use case: edit file with tkinter import and run in 3.4. Works. Open file in 2.7, changet tkinter to Tkinter, and run it. If I click on the 3.4 wndow, I do not want it silently changed.
Here is my expert use (with changed edit buffers). Hg nearly always screws up merges of Idle entries in misc/NEWS (skip the whys). So I open the two or three required versions in Notepad++, edit all to how they should be, save the earliest (currently 3.4), go to TortoiseHg, commit, and merge forward (currently to 3.5). If there is a conflict, revert to local, activate the 3.5 Notepad++ window, click NO, save, go back to TortoiseHg, mark resolved, and commit. I am curious when beginners would need this feature. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24799> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
