Todd Rovito added the comment: Very strange but I noticed the right click menu is not working on Mac OS X. Before and after Roger's latest backwards_compat.patch. I must be losing my mind but I thought this was working on OS X. The right click activation I am trying is control-click and I am

Roger Serwy added the comment: On IDLE Extensions: The public ecosystem of IDLE extensions is small, and even smaller are those that modify rmenu_specs. Changing it is trivial. However, existing users of the Squeezer extension under 2.7 will experience bugs, like triggering issue13582 on Windo

Ned Deily added the comment: "Leaving that aside, the right-click context menu is not mentioned in the brief Library manual chapter on IDLE." FTR, as I pointed out on python-dev, this is no longer true. The IDLE section of the Standard Library documentation, as well as the IDLE help file, wer

[issue1207589] IDLE: Right Click Context Menu

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: On pydev, I explained why I think the bug-enhancement policy does not necessarily apply to IDLE, starting the the fact that IDLE was treated as exceptional and not considered bound to normal policy when it was considered for deletion and ending with the fact t

[issue1207589] IDLE: Right Click Context Menu

Ned Deily added the comment: I think it is clear that this is an enhancement. So then the question is: is there a good reason to make an exception here to the "no new features in maintenance releases" policy? David mentioned some considerations. I would add testing and documentation. Testin

R. David Murray added the comment: Ah. Well, we prefer to err on the side of strictness for backward compatibility, so I think we should treat this as an enhancement, then. -- ___ Python tracker ___

[issue1207589] IDLE: Right Click Context Menu

Roger Serwy added the comment: In a strict sense, the patch does break backward compatibility for third-party IDLE extensions that modify the rmenu_specs contents. It is not a "private" value since it lacks an initial underscore in its name. But given how undocumented IDLE is, especially its e

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: It it not a new library feature that anyone would use in other code. I have been meaning to raise this issue on pydev to see what others think. There are advantages to keeping the *human* interaction with IDLE consistent between releases. --

[issue1207589] IDLE: Right Click Context Menu

R. David Murray added the comment: The reason for our "no new features" policy is that if a program works with version x.y, it should work for all x versions (modulo failing on an earlier version because of a bug...and conversely if it works on x.y, it should work on all later versions of x, w

[issue1207589] IDLE: Right Click Context Menu

Todd Rovito added the comment: Ned, I respectfully disagree that this is not a new feature. IDLE could always copy/cut/paste from the edit menu and it had a right click menu. All this patch does is add options to right click menu and call the same functions as the edit menu does. I could b
