Cherniavsky Beni <c...@users.sf.net> added the comment: History access by Up/Down is important because it makes IDLE history much more discoverable. Most users instinctively expect Up/Down to work; moving back through the text of the session is nice but they probably won't guess that you can press Enter to reuse old commands; and it's not an efficient way to access history anyway.
The problem is increased by the fact that Alt+P/N *don't appear anywhere in the menus*, so a user will never discover them! ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2704> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
