In Lib/idlelib/help_about.py, there are 2 links that are not underlined or colored, hence hard to tell that clicking works. All buttons might get converted to colored and underlined links in the future.

In `help.copy_strip`, only copy the text `<section>`. In `help.HelpParser.handle_starttag` and elsewhere, remove code to skip the no longer present html. Add a reminder at the top of idle.rst to run copy_strip after changes.

Also extend the 'idlelib' section header. These additions affect both the displayed idle.html file and the contents.html file displayed by clicking the Complete table of contents link on the main docs.python.org page. (The module index entries are generated from the module name and synopsis within module files.)

Propagate fixes in Doc/library/idle.rst to help.html.
Change 'interruptable' to 'interruptible' in run.py.
The latter was reported by ember91 in PR 125473.
Increase currently inadequate vertical spacing for the IDLE browsers (path,
module, and stack) on high-resolution monitors.

https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/88496 replaced text.update with text.update_idletasks in colorizer.py and outwin.py to fix test failures on macOS. While theoretically correct, the result was Shell freezing when receiving continuous short strings to print. Test: `while 1: 1`.
The guess is that there is no idle time in which to do the screen update. Reverting the change in one of the files,
outwin, fixes the issue. Colorizer runs ever 1/20 second and seems to work fine.
When running test-outwin on macOS, alias 'update'
to 'update_idletasks on the text used for testing.
On recent versions of macOS (sometime between Catalina and Sonoma 14.5), the default Hovertip foreground color changed from black to white, thereby matching the background. This might be a matter of matching the white foreground of the dark-mode text. The unreadable result is shown here (#120083 (comment)).
The foreground and background colors were made parameters so we can pass different colors for future additional hovertips in IDLE.

Currently, idle-dev@python.org and idle-dev mailing list
serve to collect spam (90+%). Change About IDLE to direct
discussions to discuss.python.org. Users are already
doing so.
Problem occurred when attribute xyz could not be pickled.
Since this is not trivial to selectively fix, block all
attributes (other than 'width'). IDLE does not access them
and they are private implementation details.
Callbacks registered in the tkinter module now take arguments as
various Python objects (int, float, bytes, tuple), not just str.
To restore the previous behavior set tkinter module global wantobject to 1
before creating the Tk object or call the wantobject() method of the Tk object
with argument 1.
Calling it with argument 2 restores the current default behavior.
The platform standard on macOS is to show a proxy icon for open
files in the titlebar of Windows. Make sure IDLE matches this
behaviour.
Don't use both the long and short names in the window title.
The behaviour of other editors (such as Text Editor) is to show
only the short name with the proxy icon.

By default, it preserves an inconsistent behavior of older Python
versions: packs the count into a 1-tuple if only one or none
options are specified (including 'update'), returns None instead of 0.
Except that setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Add a new parameter return_ints: specifying return_ints=True makes
Text.count() always returning the single count as an integer
instead of a 1-tuple or None.
Also fix test_mousewheel: do not skip a check which was broken due to incorrect
delta on Aqua and XQuartz, and probably not because of `.update_idletasks()`.
Tkinter is a fact, not necessarily a feature.
Reorganize editor key bindings in a logical order
and remove those that do not work, at least on Windows.
Improve shell bindings list.
test_configdialog.HighPageTest.test_highlight_target_text_mouse fails
if a line of the Highlight tab text sample is not visible. If so, bbox()
in click_char() returns None and the unpacking iteration fails.
This occurred on a Devuan Linux system. Fix by moving the
'see character' call inside click_char, just before the bbox call.
Also, reduce the click_char calls to just one per tag name and
replace the other nested function with a dict comprehension.
