Merge Py Idle changes:
Rev 1.5 tim_one Convert a pile of obvious "yes/no" functions to return bool. Rev 1.6 gvanrossum (partially merged previously, move line outside try: block) Provisional fix for writefile() [SF bug # 541730]. The problem was that an exception can occur in the text.get() call or in the write() call, when the text buffer contains non-ASCII characters. This causes the previous contents of the file to be lost. The provisional fix is to call str(self.text.get(...)) *before* opening the file, so that if the exception occurs, we never open the file. Two orthogonal better solutions have to wait for policy decisions: 1. We could try to encode the data as Latin-1 or as UTF-8; but that would require IDLE to grow a notion of file encoding which requires more thought. 2. We could make backups before overwriting a file. This requires more thought because it needs to be fast and cross-platform and configurable. Rev 1.7 gvanrossum (previously merged with modifications by Stephen M. Gava) Add primitive printing support for Unix and Windows. Rev 1.8 loewis Patch #590913: PEP 263 support. Rev 1.9 gvanrossum (tempfile.py interface -- deferred) Rev 1.10 tim_one whitespace normalization Rev 1.11 nnorwitz (deferred pending 1.9 integration)
