[New-bugs-announce] [issue27173] Modern Unix key bindings for IDLE

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

The "IDLE Classic Unix" key set in IDLE provides Emacs-like key bindings. But modern Linux environments (KDE, Gnome, etc) use different key bindings in standard editors. Proposed patch provides new key set named "IDLE Modern Unix" that uses key bindings common in KDE (and mainly in Gnome). It is more habitual for average user.

In additional the patch makes IDLE to use platform-depending key set by default.
