In the File menu, 'Close' and 'Exit' are now 'Close Window' (the current
one) and 'Exit' is now 'Exit IDLE' (by closing all windows).
In Shell, 'quit()' and 'exit()' mean 'close Shell'.
If there are no other windows, this also exits IDLE.
The snake_case names have existed since Python 2.6, so there is
no reason to keep the old camelCase names around. One similar
method, threading.Thread.isAlive, was already removed in
Python 3.9 (bpo-37804).
Printing to IDLE's Shell is often slower than printing to a system
terminal, but it can be made faster by pre-formatting a single
string before printing.
Keywords are present in the main module tab completion lists generated by rlcompleter, which is used by REPLs on *nix. Add all keywords to IDLE's main module name list except those already added from builtins (True, False, and None) . This list may also be used by Show Completions on the Edit menu, and its hot key.

It appears standard that moving the text insert cursor away from a selection clears the
selection. Clearing prevents accidental deletion of a possibly off-screen bit of text.
The update is for Ln and Col on the status bar.
Extra newlines are removed at the end of non-shell files. If the file only has newlines after stripping other trailing whitespace, all are removed, as is done by patchcheck.py.
This is done to compensate for the extra stack frames added by
IDLE itself, which cause problems when setting the recursion limit
to low values.
This wraps sys.setrecursionlimit() and sys.getrecursionlimit()
as invisibly as possible.
The initialize options are 1) add command line options, which are appended to sys.argv as if passed on a real command line, and 2) skip the shell restart. The customization dialog is accessed by a new entry on the Run menu.
The Code Context menu label now toggles between Show/Hide Code Context.
The Zoom Height menu now toggles between Zoom/Restore Height.
Zoom Height has moved from the Window menu to the Options menu.

The System Preferences Dock "prefer tabs always" setting disables some
IDLE features. Menus are a bit different than as described for Windows
and Linux.
'Strip trailing whitespace' is not limited to spaces. Wording caters to beginners who
do know know the meaning of 'whitespace'. Multiline string literals are not skipped.
