Add an "Interrupt Execution" to the Shell menu, perissue13504, annoyance #3 - "PROBLEM: There’s no obvious way to stop a running program. (Don’t expect them to know Ctrl-C)" | |||

I would like to broaden this to add other missing features to the menus. I have no need for this, but I would like history-next/prev added (to shell, as they only apply there). I never learned them because at first I did not know about them and now it is more bother to select options/configure/keys/scroll-down to find the key binding than to click/return. When I get a new program, I often look through the menus to see what is available, so if things are hidden, how do I find out about them?Does IDle or tkinter or tk automatically add the key shortcuts?I notice that some key bindings include lower and upper case, some do not. (History next/prev do not.) Is there a reason to not make all cntl/alt bindings case insensitive, and is there an issue for this? | |||

I was thinking about#12387 about caps lock and shortcuts. | |||

I'm ok with broadening the scope of this issue to include other items. If we decide to deprecate running IDLE without a subprocess (http://mail.python.org/pipermail/idle-dev/2012-June/003124.html), then the history-next/prev would fit nicely under the Shell menu.> Does IDle or tkinter or tk automatically add the key shortcuts?IDLE adds the key shortcuts. It's broken for extensions if those shortcuts are changed. SeeIssue6092. | |||

The help.txt file needs to be modified as well. See interrupt_execution.patch. | |||

I've provided a patch which seems to bring this change up to date on Python 3.6.0a4+, however I've only manually tested. Having had a look at the existing idle tests, it wasn't clear to me how I could also provide a test. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I ran a childrens' coding workshop at Kiwi PyCon 2016 in Dunedin, New Zealand using IDLE and one child in fact raised this issue and was unfamiliar with Ctrl-C. | |||
