tool tip when the cursor hovers over the return statement in the editor.
* Added How-To for using Wing with IronPython
* Implemented new Project Home Directory in Project Properties under the
Options tab to set home directory for project. This is used to override the
project file's location as the directory on which Wing will base relative
paths for file names in the Project view and elsewhere. It is also used as
the directory in which the Python Shell subprocess is launched and for the
starting directory when the Default Directory Policy preference is set to
Current Project.

Changes

* The version control integration has been rewritten and is now enabled
and configured from the Version Control preferences group and includes
a tool panel accessible from the Tools menu. Subversion, CVS, Bzr, and
Git are currently supported. By default Wing enables the new version
control system and disables the old one. If you need to use Perforce,
or if you run into problems, the old revision control system can be
re-enabled from Project Properties under the Extensions tab.

Version 3.0alpha3
-----------------

June 13, 2007

Compatibility notes:

* Build commands set in project and file properties are now stored in the
 OS Commands tool where environment for the build can be configured
separately from the environment for debugging
* Default exception mode is now 'when printed' rather than 'immediately
if unhandled'. The when printed mode will not stop if exception is
handled up the stack, but finally clauses in the stack frames between
where the exception is raised and where it is printed will be executed
before the debugger stops. While this should work with most code,
it will break stopping on exceptions in any code with a catch-all
handler written in C or C++ if that handler does not print the
exception. This should be rare; set the Debugger / Exceptions /
Report Exceptions to Immediately if Appear Unhandled to restore
the previous default behavior.

Features

* Added documentation for the OS Commands tool

* Changing file encoding in file properties now offers to reload the file
using the new encoding so it can be repaired if read with wrong encoding

* Rewrote the indent manager so conversions used a more robust algorithm
that can convert files with inconsistent indentation more reliably
into a single consistent indentation style
* Show Python indentation warnings and errors in editor using yellow and
red indicators and allow scrolling through them from the Indentation tool
* Show tooltip over warning and error indicators in editor, showing detail of
of the problem found there (currently syntax error or several possible
indentation warnings and errors)

* Show autocompletion on "b" for "from x import a, b" and "import a, b"
* Don't copy .pyo files when copying scripts from 2.x installation
* Don't fail to copy some files from 2.1 installation because of encoding
problems
* Inference type of function().attribute
* Terminating a debug process from the IDE now works in some situations
with remote processes and those running under different users. It also
uses SIGQUIT and then SIGKILL on non-win32 systems if the process won't
stop.

Version 3.0alpha1
-----------------

March 26, 2007

Compatibility notes

* Wing 3.0 runs off a different user settings directory, with different
file names for some of the files, The first time Wing 3.0 is run, it
will copy preferences, recent lists, and some other information from
any found Wing 2.x installation. After that, it works entirely
independently from Wing 2.x.
* Wing 3.0 can open Wing 2.x projects but Wing 2.x cannot open projects
that have been opened with Wing 3.0. When a 2.x project is opened, Wing
will show a notice and warn before saving. We recommend saving to another
name rather than overwriting your Wing 2.x project.
* When converting a project from Wing 2.x, the project will not auto-update
its contents unless all files are removed and re-added using Add Directory.
* Renamed open command to open-from-keyboard to reflect its action
(open still exists for compatibility). Custom key bindings that use
this command may need to be updated manually to track this change.

Version 2.1rc1
==============

May 31, 2006

Features

* Preference for selecting the action of the Tab key: It can be configured
to indent-to-match, increase indent, or insert a tab character (chr(9))
by file type. Users that have the tab key overridden in their preferences
must remove the override before this preference will have an effect.
* Improved auto-indentation within logical lines: Attempts best guess at
desired indent initially and then matches indent for subsequent lines
within a multi-line statement. Also dedents automatically when reach
end of nested parentheses.

* Multiple commands may be bound to a key if the names are separated by a comma
Bug Fixes

* Correctly replace series of spaces with tabs when indenting with tab key
* Corrected inconsistent tab indentation detector to not complain in cases
it should not, and to detect cases where indents produce bad code because
of editing mixed indents with an editor that doesn't set tab size right
(expected/known indent decrease/increase is compared with actual change
in indentation, although no visual indicator for bad locations is
implemented yet)
* Fixed several indent manager conversion cases to not break code when
it can be avoided

(except if never yet shown) and keep focus on editor
Other Changes
* Many fixes for handling non-ascii characters in installation
directory, user settings directory, debug filename, project
properties, Python path, environment variables, and preferences.
This includes fixes for failure to start up, failure to debug,
failure to search, and other problems.

Version 2.0rc1
==============

October 12, 2004

Features
* Multiple files may be selected in the add file to project dialog on
Windows NT/2K/XP.
* Encoding / Unicode improvements
* Include CJKCodecs module for the following Asian encodings (requires
use of appropriate fonts in display and editor). Note that this
encodings module for Python is still experimental and may contain bugs.
The following encodings use the CJKCodecs module:
* Chinese (PRC): gb2312 gbk gb18030 big5hkscs hz
* Chinese (ROC): big5 cp950
* Japanese: cp932 shift-jis shift-jisx0213 shift-jis-2004 euc-jp euc-jisx0213
euc-jis-2004 iso-2022-jp iso-2022-jp-1 iso-2022-jp-2 iso-2022-jp-
3
iso-2022-jp-ext iso-2022-jp-2004
* Korean: cp949 euc-kr johab iso-2022-kr

* Recognize XML file encoding in <?xml> tag
* Recognize HTML file encoding in <meta http-equiv="Content-Type"...> tag
* Recognize PO translation (localization) file encodings
* Next/previous window commands in Windows menu (includes emacs Ctrl-X 5 O
and Ctrl-O bindings)
* Editor features
* Go to definition of a symbol when control-click on it in the editor
* Added menu items for Next/Previous bookmark and bound these
commands to Alt plus right/left arrow keys (this caused some
changes to the Alt bindings for structural folding commands;
Alt-Right/Left is a command standard for bookmark traversal)
* Added emacs Ctrl-X Ctrl-X to exchange current position and mark
when marking text after Ctrl-Space
* Added emacs Ctrl-X Ctrl-W to write current file to another location
* Delete when cursor is positioned at end of indent area will delete
one level of indentation, not one character
* Pressing enter when cursor is at the end of the indent portion of
a line will auto-indent the line to match the old indent
* Set editors to read-only when the associated disk file is read-only
at the time the file is opened. This is indicated in the tab title
and status area with (r/o). The read-only status can be changed
from the editor context menu using Set Writable and Set Read Only.
* Emacs ctrl-a / home functionality goes to start of line first, then end
of indent. In non-emacs modes, home goes first to end of indent, then
start of line. Both commands are exposed so key bindings can be
altered if desired.
 * After Tab (indent-to-match) is pressed, place insertion caret at end
of leading white space when a single line was indented and the line
is either blank or the caret was in the insertion portion of the line.
* Indent & outdent region now align the first line to a multiple of the
indent size for the file
* Printing on OS X
* Added close item when right click for context menu on editor notebook tabs
or header area
* Middle click (on mice that have three buttons) closes the editor tab
that is clicked upon

Ctrl-X O in emacs mode) to move focus among visible editor splits and tools
within the same window
* Goto base class items on source browser context menu
* Extended support for autocompletion options in builtin and standard library
extension modules not available as Python source code. In Python2.3 these
include: array errno math rgbimg termios audioop exceptions md5 rotor
_testcapi binascii fcntl mmap select thread __builtin__ gc nis sha time
bz2 grp operator signal timing cmath _hotshot ossaudiodev _socket _tkinter
_codecs _iconv_codec parser socket unicodedata cPickle imageop pcre _sre
_weakref crypt imp posix _ssl xreadlines cStringIO itertools pwd strop
xxsubtype _csv linuxaudiodev pyexpat struct zipimport _locale _random
_symtable zlib datetime regex syslog dl marshal resource sys
* Support for user-defined Python Interface (PI) files to describe the
API of extension modules that Wing cannot parse for code intelligence

Advanced / Show Splash Screen preference)
* Debugger no longer reports previously seen false positives
from its unhandled exception detection algorithm (in sre_parse.py)

added with the debug.no-probe-types preference. Values on this
 list are still shown in the debugger display as opaque data values.
* Line wrapping in non-Python is constrained to currently selected
range of lines, if more than one line is selected before Justify
Text feature is used.
* Added internal type checking and expanded error messages for reading
the preferences files

* Files with spaces at the beginning & end can be opened from the recent
menus
* A class derived from a class with the same name that's imported from
another module doesn't confuse the analysis engine.
* Improved debugger's stdin wrapper so it works more reliably when
the IDE disconnects, the IDE reconnects, and in some situations
on Windows.
* Fixed crashing sometimes seen in debugger during tree expansion
(due to bugs in gtk1 tree widget)

(OS X only)
* Fixed save dialog to work properly when closed from window manager
(Linux/Unix only)

Version 1.1.9
=============

March 24, 2003

Debugger
--------

* Debugger now supports Python 2.3

* Show console by default when debugging (previously the default was
not to show the console, which was often confusing to new users)
* Added preference to specify which console program to use when debugging
with a console on Linux/Unix.
* Debugger displays both contents of __dict__ and values obtainable
by calling keys() and __getitem__() when both are present and allows
expanding descendents of str and other built-in classes in Python 2.2+

allowing for deeper display of data values in some extension modules,
such as pygtk.
* Debugger will work with OS X python interpreters built with
the framework option enabled

* Added ability to show an edge marker on source code (by default in
light red at column 80; this is configurable with preference
edit.show-edge-marker)
* Added Ctrl-T as alternate key binding for inserting a tab character
(because Ctrl-Tab conflicts with KDE virtual screen swapping)
* Added cursor repositioning commands to the Source menu with key bindings
also in normal (non-emacs) editor mode (emacs mode bindings for some
of these are non-standard)
* Automatic brace matching can be turned off with new preference
edit.auto-brace-match=false (it's on by default)
* Disabled tab error indicators in tab and mixed indent files, where
they are not reliable
* Fixed auto-indent to also replace indent of same level when the
contents of the indent (in terms of tabs vs. spaces) differs
* Under X windows, don't whomp on an external selection when a new
editor is created or opened
* Fixed emacs interaction to work properly with characters entered on
keyboards with Alt Gr key

r, R, u, U, ru, & RU.
* Fixed analysis of unicode literals
* Improved interface files for builtin

Other
-----

* Added Quickstart, How-Tos, and Python Success Stories links to the Help menu
* Search manager now remembers search options in the project file
* On Linux/Unix, help menu and Open in External Viewer in Project's
right-click menu display by default using the browser configured in
BROWSER environment variable, or by searching for common browsers.
This may be overridden with preferences gui.url-display-cmds (for urls)
and gui.file-display-cmds (for local disk files).
* On Windows the default extension for a file type is added to
a newly entered filename unless an extension is specified
* On Linux, don't fail to start up on machines missing basic fonts
* Added xsd and a number of other XML related file extensions for automatically
recognizing file type for syntax highlighting
* On Linux/Unix, close all sockets on exec to avoid propagating them into
spawned processes. This could lead to problems with reusing Wing instances,
inability to listen on the debug socket, failure in detach/attach, or
failure to debug programs that spawn sub-processes.

based on the current editor selection, or the nearest word when no
selection is made
* Faster access to view manager with ctrl-0 (zero), for quickly switching views
* Added command and key equivalents for displaying the location at
which a Python source symbol is defined. Similar to Goto Definition

names in the argument list will reuse the existing copy of Wing.
This can be overridden by specifying --new as a command line option,
which forces creation of a new instance of the IDE.
* In emacs mode, Esc followed by key and Alt-key are now automatically

Your purchase makes a big difference in our continued development
of Wing IDE!

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fixed broken macro record feature, which was doubling up all keys
pressed during macro playback
* Fixed long periods of hanging at startup on win98 with certain
Python path or project contents
* More descriptive error message when Python cannot be found at all
* Increased debug timeout to 10 seconds to accommodate slower machines
* Make sure that the analysis cache is created in all cases, so
source analysis is faster on reopening a project.
* Don't display quit warning except when last window is really closed
* Don't quit Wing when last Window is closed as part of project new/open
operation
* Multi-part key bindings now work correctly (e.g. Escape Less)
* Esc in keymap files is now a synonym for Escape
* Don't use Shift-Alt key bindings for letter keys (three bindings were
changed in normal editor mode, for clone-window, move-editor-to-new-window,
and delete-window). No code was changed, as shift should not be used
as a meaningful modifier for letter keys.
* License manager doesn't crash Wing if it fails to read a lock file;
instead, it treats it as a foreign valid lock. Also set permissions
on lock files to avoid problems in more cases.
* Optimized external file modification time checking to address slowness
seen when large numbers of Python files are discovered through source
analysis.
* Optimized source browser and analysis engine for faster startup in
very large projects or when running with a broad PYTHONPATH.
* Fixed source browser updates during analysis to keep constant the
selection, expansion state, and first visible line.
* Fixed potential problems in source browser and other tree views
during content updates, which led to broken keyboard navigation
* Fixed printing on linux systems where Python 1.5.2 is not the default
Python on the path
* Fixed insert-file editor feature, which was broken on win32 with native
file selection dialogs

Version 1.1.3
=============

March 12, 2002

Features
--------
* Added ability to show integers in debugger in decimal, hex, or octal.
Default is set by debug.default-integer-mode preference and can be
altered from the Integer Display section of the Run menu.
* gui.display-font-name may now be a full X windows font spec instead
of just the font name, allowing finer control needed for some X servers.

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fixed broken sorting of lists on the debugger display
* Fixed failure in code analysis to resolve a name imported from a package,
resulting in missing items in auto-completion and source browser
* Fixed broken one-view-per-window mode
* Fixed broken process attach/detach (Wing IDE Standard only)
* Update breakpoint icons correctly when click to change line in editor
* Fixed broken conditional, temporary, and ignore count break point
support when clicking on breakpoint margin with modifier keys
* Improved fallback options used internally if a configured font cannot
be found
* Fixed bug that could cause debugger to crash when a break point
is deleted during and active debug session
* Prevent duplicate display of path information in the Analysis Stats
dialog
* Fixed failure to display file count in analysis stats dialog
* Don't show internally used editor views in the Search Manager and
other view lists
* Fixed breaking of toolbar icons if execute a non-available command
 once, as was possible in double clicking on icons
* Disabled New Blank Window in one-view-per-window mode, since it is
not needed there

Version 1.1.2
=============

February 18, 2002

Features
--------
* Added gui.popups-stay-up preference (default false) that when set to
true causes right-click popups to stay up for browsing after the
mouse button is let up. This works better with some types of
mice and track balls.
* Initially open project manager and an untitled source file by default
if no project is opened otherwise (i.e., the first time Wing is run).

Bug Fixes
---------
* Search manager correctly unfolds search targets when using Search Manager
search and replace features
* Optimized external change checking, which should avoid some of the
heavy disk access and unresponsiveness of the GUI seen during
startup when opening large projects on some machines
* Fixed bug that could lead to crashing of debug processes running
under Linux, in cases where the debug process code objects contain
relative path names
* Fixed failure to debug new untitled files when saved during debug
initiation
* Fixed writing of incorrect header in non-shared (single-file)
project files
* Fixed failure to handle cases where stale license lock files cannot
be removed
* Correctly update breakpoint and similar commands on all cursor movement
* Set default directory in emacs file open to initial directory when working
from an untitled document
* Don't auto reopen projects when files are given on the command line

Version 1.1.1
=============

January 14, 2002

Bug Fixes
---------
* Dlls from the WINGHOME\bin\dlls directory are always used on win32
to avoid conflicts with other installed programs (such as gimp)
* Added code to terminate a subprocess that takes too long to execute
(this could hang up Wing during probing of odd Python environments)
* Enabled support for 256 color display mode on Windows (with some
display glitches remaining, such image display in About window)
* Debugger does not hold onto references to PyFrame objects longer
than required. This makes the debug run environment more like
the non-debug environment, and thus avoids bringing out bugs in
client code, as was seen in crashing some wxPython apps.
* Disabled extra debugger support for Qt, due to crashing in some
versions of pyqt or Qt. See the manual or FAQ for information
 on how to keep Qt apps responsive to Pause or breakpoint editing
during free-running.
* Added code to terminate a subprocess that takes too long to execute.
* Fixed browser expansion code; it could get into an infinite loop when
expanding a module with imported names.
* Fixed bug in outdenting ranges of code that include blank lines
* Fixed source browser auto-scrolling bug, sometimes leading to
failure to turn off filters when filter checkboxes are unselected
* Browser visibility checkboxes are now correctly set at startup

Version 1.1 final

=================

January 2, 2002

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fixed yet another leak associated with the win32gtk cursor implementation
(could lead to crashing in longer runs)
* Don't filter out tuple, dict, or list entries even if the entry type is
listed in debug.omit-types
* No longer show <undefined> variables in debugger (only worked previously
in Python 2.0 and 2.1 and conflicted with filtering by value type)
* Don't ask to reload directories when their content changes
* Improved scrolling update when scroll one line at a time in tree views
* Ctrl-Shift-F5 debugs current file
* Eliminated benign warning messages when WinXP switch user desktop is
active
* Fixed failure to close projects in some cases during project switch
* Added key mappings for the keypad navigation and insert/delete keys
* Redirected gtk / gdk error messages to our log file
* Wing cancels end session request on win98/ME if there are unsaved changes
* Add .pyw as a valid extension for Python files

Version 1.1rc3
==============

December 17, 2001

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fixed hard crash (Linux and win32) caused when clicking around on
items in source browser or project manager that caused the
docstring view to be updated, if the docstring was previously
scrolled past the length of a newly selected docstring. This
may also have affected the indentation manager, search manager,
window status area, project manager, and other text display areas.
* Fixed problems with cursor setting code that could lead to disembodied
cursors and crashing on win32
* Fixed several resource leaks and memory bugs, mostly affecting win32
* Fixed broken run-to-cursor command
* Fixed inability to reduce size of the expression evaluator
* Win32 no longer fails to display file selection dialog from
project/file properties dialog the 2nd+ time
* Fixed bug preventing reporting of user exceptions when the exception
class contains no docstring or non-string value for docstring
* Fixed flashing of editor during some debug stepping or display
from source browser, project manager, or after goto-symbol-defn
* Debugger skips internal code reached at line zero during
 module imports (previously, it stepped on line zero but
failed to display any stack or source info)
* Fixed broken Show More / Less buttons in textual variable display area
* Re-enabled WXPython support
* Removed failed attempts to log messages from wingdb when verbose
debugging is turned on (the log file name is encoded and can't be
accessed from here)
* Fixed failure of the debug process when debug.verbose preference
is true and there is no valid console for the process
* No longer attempt to display <stdio> when raise exception
in Interactive Shell or Debug Probe
* Install scripts for linux are now (again) shipped as executable
* Fixed several failures to update display on win 98/ME
* Windows no longer resize when label at the bottom of the window is
longer than the current width.
* Replace most GtkText widgets with Scintilla to avoid GtkText bugs.

Version 1.1rc2
==============

December 6, 2001

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fixed major win32 handle leak in cursor code that led to crashing
of Wing after running for longer periods of time
* Fixed bug in win32 drag-n-drop code that would cause wing to crash
sometimes if drag was not dropped anywhere
* Fixed initialization failure in win32gtk event filter list (possible
cause of crashing)
* Fixed handling of possible crash during quit win32 quit handler
* Fixed problems in View Manager resulting in failure to close views,
activate views, and in some cases complete lockup of the IDE
* Fixed failure to change to syntax highlighting by file name from the
Source menu
* Fixed bug in Interactive Shell and Debug Probe that led to failure to
detect huge values in Python 1.5 debug process, or problems handling
unicode values in Python 2.x debug process

Version 1.1rc1
==============

December 4, 2001

Incompatibilities
-----------------
* Users of wingdbstub.py must update their copy of this file from the
new Wing installation.
* Preferences debug.use-xterm and debug.persist-xterm have been renamed
to debug.use-console and debug.persist-console, respectively. The old
names are no longer supported.
* The preference main.print-wing-debug-output has been removed. Debug
output is now obtained with 'wing --verbose' on linux or by running
console_wing.exe on Windows.
* The preference debug.-verbose-debugging has been renamed to debug.verbose
and is no longer supported under the old name.
* If you manually copied the debug server code to a remote host, you must
update to the new debug server code. Earlier versions cannot be used with
this release.
New Features
------------
* Support for Windows XP
* Added debugger and syntax highlighting support for Python 2.2
* Source code analyzer accepts // as an alternate spelling of /
* Wrapped Python-level sys.stdin so that the debug program's keyboard I/O is
multiplexed with the debug server socket, allowing Pause and breakpoint
commands to be used when the debug process is waiting for keyboard input.
* Keyboard input initiated as a result of commands typed in the interactive
shell or debug probe now occurs in the shell windows rather than the debug
process or Wing IDE console.
* Changed the Debug Properties dialogs to add also ability to control whether
or not a debug console is spawned with the debug process. By default, none
is spawned and the console from which Wing was launched (if any) is reused
for command line I/O for the debug process. Set value to Start New Console
to create a new private console for the debug process.
* Debugger now supports most cases in which module __file__ is a partial path.
See Limitations section of manual's Debugger Chapter for remaining unsupported
cases.
* Added next/previous view commands and view manager for switching between
or closing views.
* Added keyboard navigation of tree views in source browser and project manager,
and auto-scroll upon expansion near end of view. Use up/down arrows, page
up/down, and home/end for navigation, right/left arrows to expand/collapse
parents, shift+right arrow to expand recursively up to 5 levels deeper,
and enter or return to open a selected item.
* Restore also scroll position and selection when opening source views
* Remember and restore the view style and filter settings on source browser
* Debugger shows private instance variables in form __varname (classname)
instead of the Python internal form of _classname__varname.
* Textual variable display now indicates expansion depth and estimated redisplay
time needed after stepping or when entering values in debug probe or
expression evaluator (which may alter debug state, and thus require reloading
variable values from the debug process).
* Page up/down now work in the auto-completer for scrolling through choices
* Edit preferences file provides easy access to preferences file in use
* For easier tech support, IDE output is now logged to a periodically truncated
file called error-log in WINGHOME/profiles/[username] (Windows) or
~/.wingide (Linux). Preference main.max-error-log-size sets the truncation
threshold (default=100K).
* Added checks for file existence before attempting to start debug or execute
from within Wing IDE.
* Added check box to indentation check dialog to allow selectively blocking
checking the file in the future (previously, it was always only checked once)
* Added ability to compact project files by removing non-critical visual
state, history, and similar information. This is done from the Project
menu.
* Moved all per-file and project-wide debug properties into the per-user
project branch when saving projects in sharable form for use in a
revision control system.
* Enhanced debugger warning about edited files, allowing ignore or auto-save
via check boxes and alter the dialog options if the debug process was
launched outside of Wing IDE.
* Interactive shell and debug probe 'paste' automatically adjust pasted text
to bring the first line to zero column, so that code from source that is
further indented can be pasted in more easily.
* Added Python for Beginners link to Help menu.
* Preference main.print-wing-debug-output has been removed. To obtain
 debug output, run console-wing.exe on Windows or "wing --debug" on
Linux.
* Added ability to log information about debugger internals to a file
by using the debug.logfile preference. Under wingdbstub, a value kLogFile
can be set, or you can use environment variable WINGDB_LOGFILE to control
logging to a file.
* Added format info to debug properties dialog.

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fixed failure to open files added to new blank project created
initially when launching Wing, after the project was saved
but before it was closed/reopened
* Fixed problem that led to crashing of Wing IDE after unexpected
loss of connection to the debug process
* Fixed several bugs that led to failure to detect external file
changes or spurious requests to reload files that have just been saved
by Wing (usually after Save As)
* Interactive shell and debug probe will no longer time out on commands
that take a long time to complete.
* Fixed traceback and dropping of debug connection, seen during call to
_IsAvailable_force_var_reload when debugging under load
* Fixed launching of xterm console for debug process under Linux and
improved environment propagation for setuid/setgid xterms (all LD_*
envs are now automatically propagated)
* Fixed errors caused by special characters on debug process command
line on Linux (args are no longer passed through sh)
* Fixed failure to display some prompts not ending in \n when running the
debug process on Linux (stderr/stdout/stdin are now unbuffered in the
debug process, using the -u python command line option)
* Brace Match command from source menu correctly highlights the range
* Wait cursor is set during entire debug variable transfer process
* Improved handling of recursive imports
* Editor popup handles deletion of all methods in a class better.
* The final part of a dotted name no longer appears in the source browser
at the child of a module node in certain circumstances.
* Fixed failure to remove directory from project.
* Source browser's class display is now cleared when a project closes.
* Autocompletion now works after manually changing the mime type of a
file to python.
* Selections work properly when more than 2 or more editor views are open.
* EINTR errors seen during socket select (caused by any signal received
by the app) are now handled correctly instead of causing errors or
termination of the debug session.
* Fixed incorrect closing of stdin in the debugee process on Linux
when no new xterm was used.
* Debug server works better if the exceptions module is not found.
* Debug process now stops as soon as possible in a non-Python mainloop
environment
* Fixed failure to scroll text into position during debugging or
in source browser, when target line was near bottom of a newly
created view
* Fixed keyboard equivalents in search manager, which were not working
on win32
* Fixed emacs search and query/replace inserts space into strings
instead of attempting completion match when space bar is pushed
* ^G or Esc out of keyboard managers fixed to restore visual state
of editor to that before interaction (this was broken recently)
* Fixed Linux-only bug resulting in concatenation of lines in files
 with CR-only line endings
* Fixed weird Linux-only process control bug where turning on debug
passive listen, launching Netscape from the Help menu, and then
quitting and restarting Wing would cause failure to reenable
debug passive listen due to socket-in-use error.
* Now correctly handle /x/y/z project location and file of name
/x/y/zfile without translating the file name to 'file' (the
correct ../zfile is used instead).
* Fixed possible problems launching debug process on win98 if the
program name contains special characters or spaces.
* Fixed bug leading to Too Many Users message in cases where the
the license lock file is in place on disk but the license file
is removed and Wing is relaunched.
* Debugger can now pause and breakpoints may be set when stdin is being
read.
* Reduced interactive brace matching overhead, which may solve disappearing
cursor bug seen during key-repeated keyboard navigation of source on
fast (1.2Ghz+) machines.
* Fixed detection of whether nested scopes are used for name resolution
when changing interpreters.
* External change detection now only brings up one dialog and updates
it as additional changes are detected, instead of displaying one
dialog per change batch.
* Don't add classes to browser when analysis is incomplete at time
of project close / new / open
* License and project managers no longer choke on "none", "true", or
"false" as value for one of the fields (only pref mgr translates
these strings to Python data types of None, 1, and 0).
* Fixed bug that foiled optimization of project and pref files read
* Fixed malloc bug that allocated 1 byte less than expected when pasting
into a text field on win32.
* Wing puts up a error dialog if it can't find the python15.dll when it
starts.
* Modules located in C:\ directory are displayed in the source browser.
* Eliminated beeps on win32 when Alt is pressed with a key that is not
a menu accelerator.

Version 1.1b8
=============

October 22, 2001

Incompatibilities
-----------------

* Users of wingdbstub.py must update to the current release's version

of this file
* If you copied the debug server code to a remote host, you must update
to the new debug server code. Earlier versions cannot be used with
this release.

New Features
------------

* Default source editor windowing mode is now to place multiple editors

into one or a few windows. This can be disabled by setting preference
gui.one-view-per-window to true. Newly opened editor views are always
embedded into the most recently used source editor window. Use New
Blank Window, New Cloned Window, and New Window with Current View from
 the File menu to create additional source windows. The Windows menu
and ^X B in emacs mode can be used to switch between views.
* Added New Cloned Window in the File menu, to allow opening multiple
concurrent views of the same source file (also in single-view-
per-window mode).
* Previously open manager windows are also reopened automatically when
a project is opened.
* Windows menu now includes blue section headings and lists hidden views
in multi-view-per-window mode separately.
* Added preference debug.safe-size-checks-only that can be used by numpy
and other users to avoid timing out the debug session as result of values
typed in the Debug Probe. The default is true, which indicates that
Wing will not attempt to avoid network transfer of very large values
resulting from typing in the interactive shell. When set to false,
interactive shell will attempt to avoid large values but then invokes
any __getattr__ methods twice, which may have undesired side effects.
* Wing now sets the foreground lock timeout on Windows 98/ME and 2K/XP
in order to be able to raise debug source windows to the very front,
even when Wing is not the frontmost app. This is a global option so
also allows other apps to raise windows when they are not the foreground
app, and persists until the last copy of Wing quits. This can be
disabled by setting preference gui.set-win32-foreground-lock-timeout
to false but be prepared that debug source windows may not raise in some
cases (they will flash in the task bar instead). The preference is
set to true by default and is included in the starter prefs choices
presented to the user the first time Wing is run.
* Double clicking on a word in the autocomplete popup menu completes
with the selected word.
* Expanded documentation of those rare cases where the debugger may fail
to stop on break points or at exceptions, with work-around information.
* Indentation manager is now also available for non-Python source files
* Update indentation style according to edits made also for non-Python or
untitled files that have never been saved to disk. Previously, the initial
analysis of indent style remained static for the session.

Bug Fixes
---------

* Better support for debugging files loaded through a relative path name
(either via relative path entry on PYTHONPATH / sys.path or by relative
path name sent to exec).
* Don't allow save-as to overwrite files that are already open in Wing,
as this leads to possible data loss and constant reload event detection
* Confirm overwrite on files also on win32
* Fixed folding bugs: No longer randomly expands fold points during
brace match and correctly expands fold points during edits without
doing so unnecessarily
* Avoid hanging up for long periods of time on large Python files
when triple quoted strings are formed or opened during editing.
* Expand folding to display search target both in emacs mode interactive
search and when using the search manager
* Set __main__ module correctly in IDE-launched debug processes, to hide
the enclosing debug machinery's __main__
* Non-ascii characters are displayed appropriately in menus and doc-string
displays on win32, and Wing no longer crashes when displaying some
non-ascii characters
* Don't track cursor backwards to previous lines when dedent or
uncomment code
* Don't save invalid debug properties when user cancels out of dialog
 after error properties are displayed
* Don't lose cursor position randomly in the editor (e.g. ctrl-a and then
del key work in normal mode to delete whole file contents)
* Limit auto-scrolling after indent/dedent and comment in/out operations
* Keep modal dialog windows on top of the application's other windows
* Don't obscure the message dialog in various cases (it is now modal
and stays on top)
* Fixed failure to quit and other strange interactions resulting from
dialog display
* Include traceback in all interactive shell errors to make better
distinction between failure and success
* Fixed use of incorrect cached analysis data when replacing a file with
another file with an older modification time and when abandoning unsaved
changes
* Corrected analysis symbol discovery in some situations when nested def
or class statements are used
* Analysis menu no longer fails to appear when there are source symbols
consisting of only underscores ('_')
* Use native win32 file selection dialog for locating license file the
first time Wing is run or when license file expires
* Improved font sizing in dialog boxes
* Removed the never-enabled Restart item from Run menu
* Fixed backtrace when checking the Incremental box in search manager
* Doc strings from files containing \r in newline no longer show with
black squares on display in project manager and browser docstring areas
* Window title is updated immediately after a save as to a different file.
* Fixed cases of duplicate evaluation from the interactive shell
* Fixed failure to update contents of expression evaluator windows
when user types in the interactive shell
* Debugger checks for run with -O or -OO option or PYTHONOPTIMIZE,
which won't work during debugging due to lack of debug information
* Fixed pausing in non-Python main loop environments, where there is
a long period of time spent in Python code only (broken in a recent
release)
* On Windows, fixed support for using python_d.exe with the debug process
* On Windows, use python.exe and not python_d.exe as the default Python
when none is specified by user
* On Windows, fixed project properties dialog not to complain gratuitously
about missing Python installation if Python is found in the registry
but not on the Python path
* Debugger Save and Restart dialog restarts the correct debug process
also when it wasn't the main debug file
* Confirm quit before closing last open Wing IDE window
* Don't persist the debug process console window by default. Set preference
debug.persist-xterm=true to return to the previous behaviour of delaying
the debug process exit until user types in the console window.
* Editor repaints more often when scrolling in some cases
* Update the project manager window title whenever projects are opened,
closed, or saved under another name
* Set wait cursor during close/save/open/new project actions and for
close all editors command
* Improved file selection panels in file/project properties dialog so
browse button leads to modal file selector in modal variant of this
dialog and to non-modal file selector otherwise (linux only). In
non-modal variant the browse button will raise already-visible
file selector dialog.
* Rescan for type of line ending and indentation style to use when a file is
reloaded from disk, so that correct line endings and indent form are placed
after external file translation occurs.
* Fixed signal mgmt bug causing failure to update macros, indent style, and
suspension of analysis during typing in the source editor
* Don't rehandle terminator in incorrect emacs key sequences, to avoid
places CR line endings on text and other related raw key problems
* Fixed incorrect initial sizing of Source Browser and Debugger panels
seen on some fast Windows machines
* Fixed printing to work on Linux also in cases where the 'python' found
via search path is not 1.5.2

New Features
------------

* Auto dedent also after 'pass' in Python code

* Split interactive shell into two independent tools: Interactive Python
Shell for testing / sandbox, and Interactive Debug Probe, for probing
a paused debug program

Bug Fixes
---------

* Fixed incorrect locals dictionary used in top-level invocation, leading

to problems at the __main__ scope when running under debugger
* Interactive shell will run its sandbox using the same Python interpreter
set up for the project or main debug file and runs in external process
rather that within Wing
* Interactive shell New Session button restores focus to shell editor
* No longer bring up debugger window when program has quit entirely or
the debug connection was lost

the menus
* Fixed code analysis problems with files containing '\r' without a
following '\n'
* Fixed shift-enter, ctrl-enter, and alt-enter to always place correct
newlines into the source text (shift-enter was placing '\r' in all
types of files)

unexpected loss of debug connection, most associated with very large data
values in the debug session
* Correctly indicate when referenced debug data values no longer exist
* Correctly handle changes in values in the expression evaluator (another
bug introduced in an earlier beta)
* Fixed failure to stop at breakpoints and incorrect source display when

===============
April 25, 2001

* Fixed failure to handle spaces in path to Python installation

Version 1.1b4
=============

April 20, 2001

Incompatibilities
-----------------

* Users of wingdbstub.py must update to the current release's version

of this file
* Earlier versions of the debug server cannot be used with this release.
This is only relevant if it was copied out of the distribution for use
on a remote host; otherwise, it is automatically updated.

New Features: General

---------------------

* Wing IDE ships with its own subset of Python so now avoids problems
stemming from running under unexpected environments and experimental
versions of Python. The debug process can run under 1.5.2, 2.0, or 2.1.
* Analysis is now informed by which python interpreter is selected for
the project or main debug file: The corresponding python path is used
for finding modules and built-ins.
* Added a new dialog box for viewing analysis status and environment.
* When no specific python interpreter is selected in project or
per-file debug properties, and 'python' is not on the search path, Wing
searches in /usr and /usr/local on Linux and in the registry on
Windows to locate the newest installed version of Python by default.
* Added manuals for Wing IDE and Python and a number of useful URLs to the
Help menu; manuals are displayed from local disk if possible, or from
web if not found locally.
* Added ability to open items in the project list into an external viewer
or editor by right-clicking and selecting "Open with External Viewer"
from the popup menu
* Added preferences to set external viewers to use with disk files (by
mime type) and URLs (by protocol type): This is used both for the Help
menu items and for opening project items into an external viewer/editor
(this pref is ignored on Windows, where the centrally configured viewers for
file types and URLs are used instead)
* Added preference for adding additional file extension to mime type mappings
to those already defined by Wing or in system-wide configuration files
* Now auto-reopen most recently open project at startup (unless turned off
via preference or when a project is given on command line)
* Added preference allowing automatic opening of project files as projects
even when opened from the File menu (default=true). Previously, they
were opened as text files by default. Now they will be opened as projects
except if the project file cannot be read as a project file, in which
case it is opened as text.
* Added recent lists for opening files and projects
* Added recent lists for debug files and executed items
* On Linux, Wing IDE ships with its own version of gtk that disables use
of themes. This avoids intermittent crashing when running against some
versions of gtk and under some gtk themes; to run with your native
installed GTK, remove or rename the directory WINGHOME/bin/gtk-bin but
 beware of crashing when themes are changed while Wing is running or
in some cases when closing source file windows. Also, make sure to
turn off guimgr.enable-tooltips preference if you run against a version
of GTK older than 1.2.8.
* Set display of tooltips on by default on new installations. This was causing
problems in gtk versions less than 1.2.8, but now gtk is shipped with Wing.
Turn this off with the gui.enable-tooltips preference only if you force
running against an older GTK version on Linux. If you are upgrading and
already have this preference in your personal preferences file, you need
to set it to true manually if you want tooltips.
* Now store debug properties and most other platform-dependent values in the
project file and preferences in a way that allows the same project or
preferences file to be used on multiple platforms
* Source window and menu item titles can be configured to use various forms
of names for files. Default is file name with appended parenthesized
partial relative path (relative to location of project file or current
working directory if there is no project open)
* Added abbreviated menu bar to Project Manager window
* Added startup splash screen
* Added preferences for setting menu fonts and the font used in content
display areas throughout the IDE (other than the source editor, which is
configured with a separate preference or from the Source menu). These
can be used to override Gnome theme or Windows-defined default values.

New Features: Debugger

----------------------

* Debugger now supports Python 1.5.2, 2.0, and 2.1 on Windows and Linux
* Interactive shell can now accept pasted-in multi-line statements
* Added support for selecting how data values are tracked in debugger
display windows: By symbolic path, by direct reference, or by named
slot in a referenced parent value. This can be controlled via preferences
or selected from the right-click popup menu over the main debugger
variable display tree.
* Added ability to add or remove items from the debug program's environment,
either project-wide or per-file or both
* Debugger shows Zope acquired attributes via aq_self and aq_parent,
when present
* Class-scoped values in an instance are italicized
* Can now also zoom out whole locals or globals tree to separate window

New Features: Editor

--------------------

* Added preferences for default editor font/size, and a font/size selector

dialog that can alter the settings for a single file or for all files
in a project
* Added ability to show/hide a line numbering column in source editor
* Added preference to set the default end-of-line style to use with newly
created files
* Improved keyboard/command macro facility supports more commands, including
indent and comment in/out commands, auto-completion, undo/redo, and
allows use of previously defined macro in definition of a new macro
* Indent-to-match feature now will uniformly indent a whole selected block
to match according to the context of the first line of the block

Bug Fixes
---------
* Fixed missing editor scrollbars bug under certain themes and gtk versions
on Linux
* Fixed crashing under certain versions of gtk on Linux, such as on Mandrake 7.2
* Windows version now supports Python 2.0 and 2.1, as well as 1.5.2
* Fixed failure to start debug process when no args were specified
for the debug program on win32
* Fixed crashing of IDE and/or debug server on dictionaries with class
instances as keys (pickle was trying to access the class on the IDE
end of the connection)
* Fixed bugs causing failure to update zoomed-out variable display views
when the display contained certain types of data
* Somewhat gentler probing to more often avoid crashing less-well-behaved
C extension modules during attribute access for debugger variable display
* Fixed introduced bug on Linux causing rejection of debug properties when using
default 'python' executable setting
* No longer bring up source code window when encounter an exception in
expression evaluation or interactive shell
* Fixed bug resulting in corrupted project file when multi-line commands
are pasted into the interactive shell window (due to incorrect packaging
of command history)
* Syntax is correctly restyled again when the lexer is changed manually
(this was broken in first 1.1 beta release)
* Re-enabled change/force indentation options which were broken in earlier 1.1 beta
* Fixed incorrect reassignment of 'len' in source editor code leading to tracebacks
* Fixed bug causing debugger to ignore the run directory debug property
* Fixed aspects of macro recording and playback broken in earlier 1.1 beta
* Fixed resizing of browser window to overly large height when viewing source
* Fixed transient failure to update analysis information when an unsaved
source file was closed and reopened
* Reduced dependency on environment: Python interpreter core for use by the
IDE is now included in the distribution, so only the debug server must
support multiple versions of Python
* Fixed incorrect close sequence for search manager window, leading to
tracebacks with each window focus change

Version 1.1b3-3 (Windows only)

===============

March 13, 2001

Bug Fixes
---------

* Fixed common problem preventing debug to be started from within the IDE
(caused by one of several bugs associated with spaces in path names
and/or incorrect doubling up of quotes around args with spaces in them
and/or path joining oddities on win32)
* Now record installation directory in Windows registry to avoid
failures to start Wing cleanly on various Windows variants
* Fixed failure to execute items outside of debugger on Windows
due to missing environment setup
* Fixed failure in file entry panel of project or per-file debug
attributes when no file was selected
* Fixed traceback emitted in some cases when quitting or closing
editor windows, due to late call into methods of destroyed object
* Fixed failure to remove stale license lock files on win32
Version 1.1b3-2

Bug Fixes
---------

* Eliminated use of strptime, which doesn't exist on win32

Version 1.1b3
=============

March 2, 2001

Features
--------

* Win32 port; tested on Win 98/SE, Win NT4 SP6, Win 2000 SP1. Python
1.5.2 must be installed separately. Please note that this is
a pre-release and contains some rough spots. Read the bug list!
* Additional documentation for Zope + Wing bundle (Linux only)

Bug Fixes
---------

* Fixed incorrect assignment of 'cgi' files to perl (naturally, we're

assuming python instead)

in __main__ scope of debug program
* Fixed modal dialog interaction in debug properties file selector
and turned off unnecessary modal behaviour of this dialog
* Values entered in debug properties dialog are now validated for
correctness

the file selector will accept a directory as it should
* Removed delay between dropping debugging connection and reestablishing
passive listen mode in debugger (which caused problems with fast
respawning programs)
* Improved color allocation to avoid problems on X servers with limited
color availability
* Fixed auto-indent bug in if/elif and try/except blocks that contain
multiple statements on a line (as in "if x: print x \n elif y: print y")

Version 1.1b2
=============

February 20, 2001

Incompatibilities
-----------------

* Users of wingdbstub.py must update to the current release's version

of this file.
* The version 1.0 debug server cannot be used with this release. This
is only relevant if it was copied out of the distribution for use
 on a remote host; otherwise, it is automatically updated.
* Indentation features have changed so that the editor preference
edit.use-tabs-to-indent-default is no longer used. This has been
replaced by edit.default-indent-style.

Features
--------

* Added a Python indentation manager for analysing and converting

indentation style found in source files
* Configured edit.tab-size is now applied in cases where a Python
file is indented with tabs only, and tab size of 8 is enforced
only when required by the Python interpreter

* Created bundled distribution combining Wing IDE and Zope into
one easy-to-install package
* Added extension interface for registering debug server sockets with
gui environments and other mainloop environments that spend much time
in non-Python code that would prevent servicing of the debug
communication channel. Gtk, Tkinter, Qt, and Zope are already
supported as of 1.0; this interface allows users to support their
own custom environments as well.
* Added preference to enable tooltips over the toolbar. Note that this
is still off by default because it brings out a bug in gtk versions
before 1.2.8; please upgrade before turning on this option.
* Added set/clear main debug file items to Project menu and item to
set debug file properties on current window in Run menu (these are
also available on the project manager's popup menu)
* Added Add Current File item to Project menu for adding the currently
open file to the project
* Quoted true/false literals in preferences are now recognized as well
as the unquoted form
* Additional third party materials are now included on the CD: Python

where Wing would fail to set up individual user environment and exit
with misleading "Could not Open X Windows Display" message
* Fixed creation of initial preferences file to output true or false instead
of 'true' or 'false' for project autosave setting, and set added code
to properly support previously incorrectly generated files
* Debugger now propagates LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PYTHONPATH also to debug
processes running within an xterm on Linux systems where xterm has
setuid permissions
* Fixed macro recording so hitting '\n' does not break macros due to auto-indent
* Disabled commands that are not macroable
* Disable/enable macro commands according to macro recording state
* Keyboard macros can be executed in any window, not just where they were
recorded (but recording still only works within the window where the macro
was started)
* File edit status indicator in lower left is now reset to clean immediately
after save
* Fixed failure to start in some cases under Python 2.x, due to incorrect
append() in code that reopens windows
* Fixed analysis bug causing tracebacks in some cases immediately after save
* Fixed a number of debugger network protocol bugs with symptoms such as
failure to step into some imports and incorrect ending of the debug session
* Fixed failure to rescan for modules during debug start, causing sometimes
unresponsive debug server when running under gtk, zope, tkinter, or qt
and using wingdbstub
* Fixed backtrace occurring when gui.show-toolbar was set to false

are no longer available.
* The low-level debug API has changed: It is now an add-on for wingdbstub
and not a separate facility.
* The version 1.0b2 debug server cannot be used with this release. This

display window was closed
* Added much more sophisticated determination of which exceptions are going
to be handled and which are not, so those that appear unhandled can be
reported during debugging.

to fail to report debugee exceptions to the IDE (Wing previously acted
as if the debugee had exited normally):
- Failed to detect unhandled exceptions that occurred within an exception block
- Failed to report exceptions re-raised by a finally block
- Failed to report exceptions occurring within a loop block
* Fixed problem in debugger API that was causing failure to debug above the stack
frame where StartDebug() was called.
* Added code so that the debug connection is closed after StartDebug() as
the program exits, even if StopDebug() was never called, so that the
IDE does not time out on the broken connection.
* Debugger now correctly highlights and presents stack frames in all
cases, also as unhandled exceptions are propagated outwards
* Fixed bug where exception location wasn't always shown (e.g., with syntax
errors in an imported file)
* Now don't exit the debug program artificially as the result of syntax errors
* The debug input/output xterm, when enabled, now persists until user types
return or enter. This can be controlled with preference debug.persist-xterm.
* Fixed problems in SuspendDebug() and ResumeDebug() in the debugger API
* A message box is displayed if a directory is empty when adding a package
to a project. This avoids a core dump with older versions of gtk.
* Debugger API bugs fixed so that stophere=1 option works on StartDebug()
* Fixed bug causing early debug tracing, so that debugger sometimes started
to debug itself during initialization
* Fixed klunky behaviour in toolbar when a single button was pressed repeatedly
without moving the mouse
* Autocompleter builds a better list possible names based on context and dotted
imported names work.
* Fixed bug preventing expansion of sub-values in short items displayed
as a single string in the debugger
* Fixed off-by-one bug in stack display when StartDebug() is used
* Fixed off-by-N bug in current frame shown when <string> frames were
on stack due to nested eval() or exec() calls
* License manager now removes stale lock files created on localhost, to
avoid reaching license limit after crashes.
* Project manager automatically keeps a blank project open when nothing
else is open, to avoid confusion about what's going on when Wing is
launched without arguments
* Fixed bug in comment-out feature in editor so that it also works when
blinking caret is at the very start of a line
* Fixed <tab> indentation bug causing incorrect indentation when previous
line ended in a comment
* Fixed keypad enter to work
* beginning-of-line command now first goes to start of line, and if repeated
to the end of the leading white space
* Fixed ctrl-tab so it really inserts a real tab character and not spaces
* Fixed crashing of IDE caused by lexer problems when reading an HTML
file with embedded Javascript, and corrected other embedded lexers
(VB, PHP, and Python) to syntax hilight with the correct keywords
* Set the watch cursor on all GUI areas now during busy times, using
a new more reliable/correct approach
* Fixed bug causing wacky horizontal scrolling of source code in various
cases
* Emacs mode interactive search uses more logical last-search-string
on double ^S or ^R
* Fixed handling of '#' within strings in license manager and preferences

Version 1.0b2
=============

Sept 29, 2000

Incompatibilities
-----------------

* Users that have copied the preferences file into ~/.wingide/preferences

may wish to set preference edit.print-python-as-text=false in that file.
This release fixes bugs in Python printing, and setting this option to
false will enable (previously broken) syntax hilighting in printed Python text
* Users of wingdbstub.py must update to the current release's version
of this file.
* The version 1.0b1 debug server cannot be used with this release. This
is only relevant if it was copied out of the distribution for use
on a remote host; otherwise, it is automatically updated.

Features
--------

* Python 2.0 support

- Wing will run under Python 2.0
- Wing understands many of the Python 2.0 language extensions
* Added comment-out / uncomment-out feature for all supported mime types
* Added close-all feature for closing all open source windows
* Added fill-paragraph / rewrapping feature for reformatting text easily
* Added support for international keyboards (at least deadkeys now work)
* Source code analyser now works with files that have DOS line endings
* Source code editor now works with DOS line endings (indent was broken,
and it now adds in DOS line endings if the file already has them)
* Added preferences for filtering of the contents of the debugger variable display
 area by value type or variable/key name, and to control size thresholds
for skipping huge data values that would result in hanging the debug process
* Wing now prompts to set major pref choices such as editor personality
and print paper size the first time it is started
* Better support for multiple debug entry points in a single project
* Added key accelerators for the first 9 views in the Windows menu.
* Much improved brace matching feature
* Set cursors to watch to indicate 'busy' in some places now

Bug Fixes
---------

* Generalized data display so that more data types can be seen in the
debugger, including (smallish) numpy arrays
* Fixed bugs in the debugger that caused it to end the debug session when
encountering very large data values (displaying very large values is not
yet supported though)
* Fixed debugger to correctly set run environment when specified (but not
when connecting to an externally launched program)
* Fixed bug in debugger that prevented cPickle from working with
any add-ons, such as Numeric in numpy.
* License manager now allows you to run >1 concurrent copy of the IDE as same
user
* Fixed printing multi-page syntax-hilighted Python documents
* Fixed a bug in license manager that prevented correct reporting of
too-many-users condition
* Fixed per-file debug properties dialog so it is no longer modal
* Fixed incorrect appending of wingdb.py to end of sys.argv during debug
* Fixed off-by-one bug in outdent region code.
* Eliminated traceback when browser is clicked where there is no text.
* Eliminated analysis popup failure on package __init__.py files.
* Fixed tokenizing of unicode strings and single-quoted strings that span
more than one line.
* Main debug file indicator is now refreshed properly when changed in
project mgr
* Fixed FAQ/Manual information on using the profiler with the debugger
* Fixed bug that caused browser to freeze when a sequence of imports
didn't resolve to an actual identifuer.
* Fixed crash during autocompletion when starting completion in the
middle of a word & backspacing.
* Fixed 'late pref mgr call' traceback that could occur while exiting
the IDE
* Fixed crashing of IDE when debug program exits unexpectedly during
a variable expansion
* Fixed crashing of IDE when debug program's xterm input/output window
(when enabled via prefs) is closed during a debug session
* Better analysis of multiple changes to the source text that happen
quickly and that involve adding or removing lines.
* Adding a package to project doesn't get confused by subdirectories
with names that match mask within the project directory.
* Added check to Save As to see if a file with the new name is open in
the IDE.
* Substantially sped up debugger variable display expansion
* Fixed bug in debugger causing failure to show the source location and/or
detailed info for certain types of SyntaxError exceptions
* Debugger main project file is reset correctly when projects are closed
